  Instructions

  1. Print the base plate. Trim any flash or wide layers.
  2. Place one small drip of epoxy in each hole to receive a magnet. I used 9 magnets, though the plate supports up to 15.
  3. Place a magnet in each hole with epoxy. Press on the plate and magnets with a flat surface (e.g. scrap wood) to seat and align all magnets evenly. Part is designed so magnets protrude slightly (0.1mm), for good contact.
  4. Let epoxy cure to "full cure" time in instructions, or magnets may pry out prematurely.
  5. Print the headphone hook. Trim any flash or wide layers.
  6. Assemble the two printed components together, using ABS cement, acetone, or epoxy.
