Hello to my project. This is a small add-on for my IKEA Ender 3 enclosure. I wanted to store my tools convenient enough that they're not always lying around but also are pretty close, that I can get them in seconds. So I designed a very simple magnet holder. It's a pretty simple and easy to explain design.

Supplies

You need:

• 3D printer
• the magnets
• some tools you want to hold

Step 1: Slice the File

We will use the PrusaSlicer ColorSwitch to stop the print at the right point

Open PrusaSlicer and import the file. And click on the slice button. A timeline will appear on the right side of the screen. This shows the selected part of the object. Therefore, you can move this little triangles at the bottom and top of the timeline. You move the top triangle until you only see one layer above the holes. Now you click on the small + symbol. The program calculates the color switch, and you can see the result after 1 second.

Step 2: Add the Magnets

Now take your time and do it right!

You have to focus on the polarity of your magnets. They should all face in one direction, that you have all their strength. I think you don't have to use that many magnets like I did, but I wasn't sure If the magnets would hold the tools.

Step 3: (Optional) Add Sweet Little Images

This is the PDF with the images I printed. I already scaled them to the right size, you shouldn't have to do anything. The only thing you need is transparent tape and a knife for cutting. You should roughly cut the outline of the print. It is a little tricky at first because the tapes can glue itself to the paper and destroy it. After some tries, I got it done.

I think the results speak for their themselves. Until now, I really liked the design and appreciated the easy access to my tools. I hope you enjoyed this Print and have fun to build it. Let me know in the comments what you think or if you have any questions? Thank you for reading.
