Fish Refrigerator Magnet

prusaprinters

<p>A fun little fish-shaped refrigerator magnet! The fridge magnet is actually quite strong because it uses (3) 6.4x6.4x2.5mm neodymium-iron-boron (rare-earth) block magnets, which are embedded in the body during printing (shown in the photos). I designed this around and used <a href="https://www.magcraft.com/magcraft-nsn0610">Magcraft P/N: NSN0610/N40</a> magnets. A print pause is used to insert the magnets during the print process. The magnets are a tight fit, but will settle into place with a firm press of a finger. I recommend aligning the poles of the magnets before inserting them, but this is not functionally necessary. The print is sliced with a height range modifier to provide finer detail to the top surface of the fish (base to shoulder is 0.2mm layer height, top surface is 0.1mm layer height).</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Like the Fish Refrigerator Magnet, but wish it were smaller?
