Purge container for the PWAS system

Hello everyone!!

I have devised an accessory system for the purge wiper based on interchangeable magnetic accessories (PWAS - Purge Wiper Accessories System). All accessories attach to a small adapter containing two 8x3 mm magnets (https://makerworld.com/en/models/1006029#profileId-984479).

On this occasion, I present my version of a purge container for the Bambu Lab A1/A1 mini.

After extensively searching for a purge container that met my needs and failing to find one that fully satisfied me, I decided to create my own version.

It is a container that magnetically attaches to the printer using a coupling accessory (PWAS system), which can be used to add other types of accessories besides the purge container (I have some in my profile and I am designing more).

For this attachment, four 8x3mm round magnets are needed, two for the container and two for the attachment piece.

Assembly is very simple and everything snaps together, although the magnets may require a drop of glue to be perfectly fixed. I placed the magnets with opposing polarities in each pair so that, when joining the pieces, they autonomously seek their correct position, but you can place them as you see fit.

I designed it with an aesthetic that aligns with the printer's aesthetic to give the appearance of being part of it. Additionally, I added text with the brand and model and colored it in a shade similar to the original screen prints.

I've included two print profiles, one for two-color printing if you have an AMS and another for single-color printing with the text in bas-relief.

I hope you love it as much as I do.

PS: If you print it, I encourage you to comment on your impressions of the model, upload photos of the result, and give me a boost to help me create more models.

By the way, I used matte white PLA to give it a finish more similar to the casing.

Although I believe the light gray PLA Basic is the closest match, I didn't have any to test.
