Description

UPDATE, 13/06/2024: Added STL files for a 16mm module (orignal and loose-fit) Added STL files for a 32mm "experimental" module (orignal and loose-fit) UPDATE, 21/04/2024: Added STL files for a 9mm module (orignal and loose-fit) UPDATE, 17/04/2024: Added STL files for a 14mm module (orignal and loose-fit) UPDATE , 30/03/2024: Uploaded some experimental STL file. They are not tested! Use at your own risk! Contains: A "deeper" more to center, version of the 3mm module. And 2mm, 25mm and 30mm modules and an empty one (see notes below). UPDATE , 17/03/2024: Added a 17mm module (orignal and loose-fit) UPDATE , 15/03/2024: Added a 7mm module Added the STL files for a loose-fit version (see notes below) UPDATE , 11/03/2024: Added a 5mm module A modular magnet organizer, so you can store your magnets without chaos and only have to print the ones you need. Many of the models already available online, are made for magnets in sizes that you may not have, or you would like to add other sizes later. So I created this modular model, with individual modules for different magnet sizes. This way, you only have to print the ones you need. The modules can be joined together and the two ends provide a nice finish. If you like, you can print the individual modules in different colors or only the end plates. Match the color for one print job, so you won't have much waste. Modules for magnet with size: 20mm, 18mm, 17mm, 16mm, 15mm, 14mm, 12mm, 10mm, 9mm, 8mm, 7mm, 6mm, 5mm, 4mm and 3mm For some sizes there are modules with single or two slots. Also a version of a module, combined for the 6 and 8mm magents. The modules are 50mm in height. If ouy need to store more or less amount of magnets, I think you should be able to scale in Z axis. The modules fit tightly into each other. This ensures that everything holds together well. I recommend using a small hammer for the assembly. Carefully tap the modules together with the hammer. The modules can also be separated again, using the same method. For example if you want to insert another size between them later. I printed the modules in PETG and the ends with PLA. However, any other strong filament should be possible. For a little more stability, I used 20% infill for the modules. Iron the top surface, for a beautiful finish. The magnets fit relatively thight in the slots, which ensures that they don't fall out so easily. With the labeling, there is also a little more space between the magnets, so the do not interfere each other so strong. This is my first upload. Please let me know if you have inputs, problems or request for adjustments. I will gladly try to help. Notes There are also STL files for a loose-fit version. (the male side of the connection is slightly smaller) If you are not sure, whitch version gives the best result for you and your printer, probably try first, one single piece from each version. So you can test it first. The idea is to have a tight fit, so the parts cannot fall apart. The thight fit is by purpose and you maybe have to use a hammer to put them together. If there is not enough space for the magnets, you should be able to scale it up, so it fits better. I have uploaded some experimental STL files. They are not testet! Use at your own risk! Please no rating, if you have any problem with this files. There is a "deeper" version for the 3mm module. Because some people have mentioned that the magnets do not hold. And 1mm, 2mm, 25mm and 30mm modules. There were requests for these sizes. Depending on the tolerance, it could be difficult for the smaller sizes to work. The large ones stick out on both sides. If that doesn't bother you, you can use it. Maybe use more infill, for better stability. Also there is an empty version. So you can use modifiers in the slicer to add a slot etc.
