Bricked: NFC Tag with Magnet

🧱 NFC Brick with Magnet 

3D printable NFC brick designed for a round NFC tag (Ø 25 mm) and a neodymium magnet (Ø 15 mm × 3 mm).
The model is made for pause-during-print assembly, allowing the magnet and NFC tag to be inserted directly during the print.

🔍 Description

This model is a compact NFC brick that holds a standard 25 mm NFC tag and a 15 × 3 mm magnet.
During printing, the process is paused so the magnet and NFC tag can be inserted before the print continues. This results in a clean, fully enclosed object without visible glue or seams.

Once finished, the brick can be used as a physical NFC trigger for smartphone automations (e.g. lock phone, enable focus mode, launch apps) using NFC apps such as Foqos.https://www.foqos.app
