Mitutoyo Absolute Magnetic Holder

Remix of "MITUTOYO ABSOLUTE HANGING CALIPER HOLDER" by Maltvat. I removed the screw holes and hook hole and replaced them with four 8.15mm x 2.1mm pocket holes on the back in which you can friction-fit 8mm neodymium magnets. I only use three magnets, you could probably get away with 2. It does require some effort to force them into the hole, if you prefer gluing you could probably widen them easily with a sharp blade or just modify the STL. Note, it doesn't hold itself in the middle of the whiteboard, it will slide to the bottom but that's where I prefer to have it anyway. If you want it to stick to the middle of a metal surface or whiteboard, you may need stronger magnets or to put adhesive rubber on the back so there's more friction to hold it in place.
