Description
Remix of a Fanhome Deagostini R2-D2 Restraining Bolt Magnet. I basically resized the original file to fit the Fanhome R2-D2 size and added space inside the model in order to embed magnets that I had on hand already. The magnets are about 5mm in diameter and 5mm in height. The print profile has a pause in it so that you can place the magnets inside the print and then continue the print. No need to glue anything.
I also wanted to enure the magnets would hold while R2 rolls around, so I made an interior part with embedded magnets to give the grip extra strength. Just be sure to consider the correct polarity of the magnets before outting them into the print. I marked each end with a sharpie. Also, the interior part is quite large, so make sure you have enough clearance to close the door before you glue it in place. I use a pencil to trace its outline so I would know where to glue it.
Happy printing!
