44 Delta is proud to make the popular Slim Cloaks EZ magnetic pick handles available for you to print at home. These handles, complete with required magnets, can be purchased at one of the following links:
In this project you will find several groupings of files (STLs) to suit your needs:
Unnumbered Single - Just need a couple pick handles and don't care about the number identifier on your Reaper pick? Go with this option.
Numbered Set 1-5 - Want to print out the complete numbered set of pick handles (1 through 5), but not with the multi-color text option? You want this one.
Multicolor Numbered Set 1-5 - Want the complete numbered set, and to have the numbers be in a different color than the rest of the pick handle body? This one, or the next one are what you want.
Multicolor 44 Delta Themed Numbered Set 1-5 - Want to go big and print the 44 Delta themed version of Slim Cloaks EZ pick handles? Here you go!
Required Hardware
You are going to need magnets! These handles are designed to use 1/4in x 1/16in N52 disc magnets (emphasis on the N52 grading). You have two options:
Support my small business (44 Delta) and purchase admittedly over priced magnets that are the same ones I use in the pick handles I sell: Magnets from 44 Delta
Source the magnets yourself. Before you head straight to Amazon though, you should be aware that most magnets sold there with a claimed rating of N52 are anything but that (far weaker). Ask me how I know ;)
You will need 6 of these magnets per pick.
Assembly

Printing
Orient each half of the pick handle so that the the face (outside) of the handle faces the print bed
15% infill
No supports
Enable variable layer height and use small layer heights for the first layers (where the fillet around the handle is), and in the area where the two rails above the magnet channels are
.2 layer height for the rest is fine
For the multi color models, split the object into its constituent parts and color as needed
