Magnetic Hexagonal Parts Bins

prusaprinters

<p>Hexagonal parts bins that are magnetized both on the sides and bottom so that they'll snap together. A variety of options for the bins to accommodate a variety of parts.</p><h5>Print Settings</h5><ul><li>15% infill</li><li>3 parimeters</li><li>.2mm layer height</li></ul><h5>BOM</h5><ul><li>6x3mm round neodymium magnets (12 per bin, or you can use less and fill the holes with included plugs)</li><li>12x6x3mm rectangular neodymium magnets. (you can use smaller/thinner magnets if you want less attraction.)</li></ul><h5>Filament</h5><p>You can use any filament you want, but I've used a mix of Prusament and Fillamentum ASAs because of its high glass transition temperature in case I want to put a cooling soldering iron tip in one.</p><h5>Assembly</h5><p>For the side magnets, put a <strong>small</strong> drop of superglue in the hole and insert the magnets, being sure to be mindful of the orientation, as seen below:</p><figure class="image"><img src="https://media.printables.com/media/prints/166022/rich_content/2182bd45-3fdf-4b3b-8da2-cc74bc66b837/image.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22cc979cdd-2f50-4826-8c2d-108a9aed8b06%22%2C%22w%22%3A960%2C%22h%22%3A908%7D"></figure><p>For the magnets on the bottom, use a small amount of super glue and press them into place. It's a snug fit, so a pair of parallel pliers can be helpful.</p>
