Simple modular organiser to keep your cables tidy. Can be customised to hold any number of cables just by adding more dock pieces.

Mounts come in two sizes (small = 3.2 mm, big = 5.5 mm) to suit a variety of cables. The larger size is easier to assemble and will still hold any cable however.

Parts to print:

- Dock pieces - 1x left + 1x right + as many center pieces as you need

- Cable mount - 1x bottom piece + 1x top piece

Parts needed:

- Magnets - 4x magnets (6 x 3 mm) per cable

- Super glue - to stick the magnets in place

- Double-sided tape - to stick the dock down

Notes:

- The dock pieces are intentionally designed with tight tolerances to keep them together. They should snap together with a satisfying click

- The magnet holes are not designed to be press fit, but this may work depending on your print tolerance

- Double check your magnet polarity before you stick them down! If you get this wrong, you can use a small flat head screwdriver in the slopes adjacent to the magnet holes to pry them back out

Requests:

- Feel free to request designs for different magnet sizes or cable thicknesses. I used 6 x 3 mm magnets because I had plenty of spares from other projects
