[Deprecated] Magnetic Storage Container

thingiverse

**Deprecated:** 11/01/2019 - Did not like how it worked. Hinge broke after a few weeks. Magnets wouldn't stay in their slots. [New version linked here](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3950334) [Video of container in action](https://www.instagram.com/p/B3U_UZIp8-P/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link) **Fusion360 Files** [Version without hook](https://a360.co/2OCUBQD) [Version with hook](https://a360.co/2ooQjRT) **Synopsis** The original concept was a secret storage container (not so secret anymore) that hooks onto the rail underneath the driver's seat in a 2017 Nissan Frontier (with manual seat adjustment). This version uses 4 12mmx3mm disc magnets to snap the lid closed in a switchblade-ish motion. It works well, but I didn't actually print the magnet covers. I instead used super glue to hold the magnets in place. This seems to work well, but I included the magnet cover in case anyone wants to try it. I have not tested the version without the hook, but it seemed like most people wouldn't want the hook. I essentially copied the F360 file and manually removed the hook.
