Magnetic Switch

thingiverse

This is a magnetic switch that utilizes affordable whiteboard magnets and standard #10 hex nuts to function effectively. Demonstration: https://youtu.be/YaQXLcFUSg4. I originally came across Andrew Klein's video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9tZIFfM14o, which inspired me to create my own version. I also noticed that users such as https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3556210 had the idea of using standard nuts for easy assembly at home. This design takes it a step further by utilizing space more efficiently to accommodate more magnets and larger magnetic fields, incorporating an internal locking feature, and featuring snap-fit assembly made entirely from 3D printed parts. I recommend installing the press-fit part using a bench vice to ensure proper seating. Required Materials: * 12 #10 Hex Nuts: https://amzn.to/2ztHLP3 * 24 x 10x5x3mm Magnets: https://amzn.to/2VHKfBW The provided g-code prints the handle body with supports, but this is not necessary; it can be printed without them if the orientation is reversed. If you create one, please share a picture!
