  • 12x3mm magnets x 4: superglue magnets into position

Description

***Made a somewhat thinner magnetic key chain in a different form factor and is much more interchangeable. See here if interested:


I saw a few of these on here but the ones I printed released too quickly for my tastes (heavy keys). I wanted something with a little more hold, so I threw this one together. 

Takes 4 magnets (12x3mm magnets) that can just be superglued in and they hold pretty well. Without magnets it still has some hold thanks to the little tabs and groove that allow the inner piece to slot into the outer piece.

There are two variants of the outside portion, a tighter fit and a looser fit. The tighter fit was mainly to print one in tpu as, depending on your printer, the tighter one may not work with less flexible filaments. I printed the looser fit in petg-cf and it has held up very well so far and is (in my opinion anyway) very satisfying and has a fairly strong hold.

If you have any suggestions to make it better in any way, please feel free to leave a comment and let me know :)
