Magnetic Shoelace Clips

thingiverse

We require small cylindrical neodymium magnets measuring exactly three millimeters in diameter by two millimeters in length. These magnetic components serve as a copy of the innovative designs found at zubits.com. One primary advantage they offer is allowing you to bypass the hassle of constantly unlacing and lacing shoelaces, providing a solution similar to the convenience of using velcros. Printing a set of four such magnets is recommended, but don't forget to mirror their design carefully, as holes may need to be fine-tuned for optimal fitment and neatness. Printing these at 100% solid density is advisable. Once you have them, lacing your shoelaces forward and backward with extra lengths won't be an issue anymore. You can also use this as an opportunity to create more precise designs if needed, but always maintain a level of neatness. We've made sure to include a FreeCAD file so you can work directly on it without worrying about importing other design software or going through the time-consuming process of designing from scratch.
