The Parametric Screw Head Magnet

Give your fridge (or anything magnetic, really) a workshop vibe with these 3D-printed screw head magnets. 

 

I’ve made this model parametric. Instead of struggling with a hole that’s too tight or too loose, you can just input your magnet’s diameter and thickness. The screw head will automatically scale to ensure your magnet fits. Just add a bit of glue and pop in the magnet. 

 

Make it like you accidentally bolted your notes to the fridge.

 

IMPORTANT PRINT SETTINGS:

 

This is the correct orientation - 

 

If you're concerned about adhesion or bad bridging, you can paint a manual support dot under the model where the magnet goes, like this - 

 

Slice it, then make sure the generated support DOES NOT touch the lip of the model, like this - 

 

I personally haven't had any need for supports, but I've tested it for the people that do. This way the support comes off easily and you don't have to trim/clean the lip of the model to make the magnet fit. 

 

Happy screwing!
