I usually don’t ask for this, but I’ve noticed that many creators actively encourage it on other platforms—and it makes sense, as it helps increase visibility. So, if you can follow me, it would make difference. It’s a great way to support my work and show appreciation.

Introduction
This solution is a real Columbus egg, for those who do not know the explanation, here it is
- This will make you know when the reservoir is full of waste, by dropping out;
- it has an embedded and calibrated way to support a certain weight (about 2 Kg of poop)
- but can be increased or decreased, depending on the number of magnets;
- You don't have to pick up the wastes (poop's) from the floor, it will be ready to recycle in a bag;
- no changes to the printer;
- works on P1 series and X1 series
- Super lightweight and easy to implement.
- And finally, it reduces the fan noise coming from the escape gate of the flushing waste, and it is noticeable.
Surely you will ask, how is this all possible? It must be something very complex!? No, it's not.
The curious thing is, it seems that no one has done so yet. But now that the solution has been shown, it seems simple and obvious. And that's why I mentioned the famous “Columbus egg”.
Material
- Basic PLA or Matte PLA for the main body, for great results you can use PLA-CF (PLA with Carbon fibers), you will not see layer lines and the part will be a little stronger.
- PETG for the O-ring
- 4x neodymium magnets of 10x3mm
Assembly instructions
Open the bag fully, insert opening of the bag on the retaining ring, then insert the bag and the retaining ring on the circular part of the funnel. The retaining ring should fix the bag.
 Glue the magnets (I think they will not fall, but just to be on the safe side |  Insert the garbage bag on the round part of the funnel. Verify that it is open. |  Insert the retaining ring. |
Then all you have to do, is to put it on the machine, be sure to align with the lip with the escape hole of the machine.
A user suggested a rubber band… if it is strong enough and the bag does not slip, it can be an option.
