3D PRINTING SETTINGS - Magnets
*All magnets use 10mm x 2.3mm-2.6mm magnets like These On Amazon***.
- 0.16mm layer height
- 3 walls with a 0.4mm nozzle (could do 2 walls with a larger nozzle.)
- 10% Lightning infill (lightning infill is great for these because it keeps the weight down and only creates infill where needed. Keeping the weight down helps the magnets be more effective.)
- 5-6 bottom layers (gives a little extra strength to the magnet attachment area.)
- If your printer struggles with bridging, you may need to add support inside the magnet slot. Give it a try without and see how it goes.
*While it may be possible to safely drop the magnets in without pausing the print, if you are using a faster printer or printing many magnets at once... it would be best to add a pause to your print. I suggest pausing close to the layer where the magnet slot is nearly done, but not covered (see slice image above). This is fairly easy to do in most cases, but be aware that some printers do not support this option via gcode, and must be paused manually. Please research your printer and slicer if you are unsure how to do this. To add a pause to prints in Cura, follow this Guide. To add a pause to prints in Bambu Studio and Prusa Slicer, follow this Guide.
*NOTE, be cautious when using steel nozzles, the magnets may want to grab hold of them. I did not find this to be a problem when using a magnetic bed surface in tandem with the steel nozzle.

I’ve always twisted them on after, but I can’t think of any reason why you couldn’t do it with a pause.

Are the snake keychains able to have a pause and place the keychain pieces in place or meant to be fully printed and then the keychain piece is twisted on?

Oh, sorry. I didn’t put settings for the keychain. For that I would use 3 walls, 10% infill (but not lightning, I like gyroid).

First time printing one of your files and am trying the key chain....settings the same as for the magnet?
