Description
This case holds 2 Aukey USB-C to USB 3.0 (USB-A) adapters. It is designed to have a 6 x 3 mm magnet embedded in each the box and the lid to hold them together.
To embed the magnets, I used GCode Simulator to find the height of the first layer above the hole for the magnet, then I inserted command M600 to pause the printer. When I added the magnet it wanted to lift out of place and stick to the gantry of my printer when I resumed printing, so I glued it in place with a drop of super glue before resuming. When placing the magnets, be sure to orient them so that the lid and box are attracted to each other when assembled.
