Anet A8 Easy Magnetic Extruder Access Mod (8x2 mm magnets)

I had at hand only 8x2 mm magnets so I remixed the version from aap007 to fit them.

I choose to use this version because of the lid that makes the two parts snap in place perfectly.

Post-Printing

Tolerances on my Anet are a bit gross so I used a heat gun to fit the magnets and nuts in place.

How I Designed This

This is my first attempt with SketchUp - it was easy since I only changed holes radius from 2.6 to 4.1 mm!
