Hydration tube magnet clip

thingiverse

This is a magnet attachment for a hydration bladder hose. It uses 10mm by 2mm neodymium magnets glued in with CA or hot glue. The tube magnet slips over the hydration tubing and was designed to be a little loose to allow the tube to slide. The siamese clip is designed to slip over 1" webbing. If your backpack has welting on the strap instead of webbing use the Magnet welting STL. One end is slightly larger than the other to allow it to slide on easier. PRINTING: The clip can be printed magnet side up without supports and is the strongest orientation. The Tube magnet prints easiest magnet side down without support however will be strongest printed lying down with the tube hole pointing up. If this is done it should be printed with support and a raft. The welting magnet holder prints easiest with the magnet facing down and build plate support (I used tree support in CURA). It will be stronger printed in the standing orientation (magnet pointing to the side). If printed in this orientation I would recommend using a raft to support it as there is very little touching the build plate. I have printed and used all these designs printed in the easier orientation and have had no issues.
