UPDATED:
1) Left more room on Insert 2 for the internal magnets.
2) Added Kreg HD Jig Hold Down(HD_Holder2.stl)

I didn't like how my Kreg K5 parts rattled in the wing storage cases so I created some magnetized holders to keep things more secure. I also added locations for the Kreg HD driver and drill to keep everything together.

NOTE: The drill bit holder (Insert_2_UPDATE.stl only) was designed to have the magnets embedded inside the print in order to protect the drill edges. You will need to alter the G-code to pause your printer and manually insert the magnets and resume printing. I did this at two different heights and it worked pretty good. I've updated the files to have more room for the selected magnets.

I got the idea for embedding the magnets here: http://the3dprintingnerd.com/2019/02/24/embedding-magnets-when-3d-printing-by-flipping-normals-thanks-to-makers-muse/

Magnets I used: 10mm x 3mm

Post-Printing

  1. Add magnets, spot glue if needed but I tried to make it a press fit.
  2. Use Hot glue to secure in place using other Kreg Accessories as a guide. You only need hot glue on the bottoms of pieces, it will be plenty strong.

 

NOTE: This is my model and original design, as is the same posting on Thingiverse, however, Thingiverse has not been able to help me reset my account after multiple attempts so I am importing everything manually to Printables.
