Description

I couldn't find a mancala set that looked like the one I had years ago so designed my own in fusion as close to the original as possible. Instead of hinges to fold in the center I went with embedded magnets to hold it together while playing and to hold it closed for storage. I used more magnets in the picture than necessary and adjusted it after having printed it. 6 6x3mm magnets are required to hold the 2 pieces together while playing and 8 more 6x3mm magnets to hold it closed for storage. So a total of 14 6x3mm magnets are needed for the complete usage but only 6 are needed for playing and aren't worried about storage. If you have different sizes of magnets it is very simple adjust the spaces by going to the objects tab in Bambu studio and using the scale function to change the sizes of the negative cylinders.  ( If changing, I would recommend adding and extra 0.5mm to whatever the diameter of the magnets you are using and add 0.2mm to the height of the magnets you decide to use.) The magnets on the top of the board are hidden by implementing a pause before the layer that covers the gaps for the magnets. During this pause I put the 4 magnets into their respective gaps WITH GLUE. If fast drying glue is not used the magnets will attach to the nozzle and likely ruin the nearly complete print.

The pause to place and glue the magnets in is preset to be at ~3.5 hours into the 4 hour print if you are using the posted print profile

 

I also have a print profile for the beads I made in the pictures using transparent PETG. This is not necessary so if your want to use PLA  for the beads choose the plate labeled PLA BEADS for good results
