Mandalorian Belt Mine Mag Charge

thingiverse

After getting superglue all over yet another painted model while trying to hold the button in the right place... AND after printing the umpteenth puck plate at one more % scale and STILL not getting the right size for the mines to fit in it, I decided to remake the models I was using. I started by making sure everything would fit in a Mandalorian belt harness I bought from Ali Express. The mine is a remix of the one I've referenced, but I've closed off the big hole at the bottom and left enough to hold a 10mm x 2mm magnet. The middle button now slides down inside the mine so it's much easier to fit and also helps with holding the magnet in position. The puck plate has been totally built from scratch in FreeCad to hold three mines and 10mm magnets. Printing these in transparent, red resin and painting the outside of the mines with Alclad results in 38mm mines with an awesome finish. They can be scaled up and then at least you know the magnet holes are getting bigger, not smaller. Lastly I added a simple magnet plug to go in the bottom of the mines I'd already printed at 38mm from the original file.
