Description

I used emmett's OpenSCAD file to create the planetary gears >> https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:53451


It uses 3 8mm(D)x3mm(H) magnets.  The center magnet needs to be glued in place.  The outer magnets should be press-in, but can be glued if needed.  The 2 outer magnets are to keep the outer part from spinning.  They attract to the screws in the corners of the motor.


I also included an MMU 4 color version.  It should look a lot better with multi-color.
 

* Edit
Shortened the post where the middle magnet mounts.  It was pushing the Sun gear out too far and causing minor friction.
