MagSafe Wall Mount

This is my first version of a wall mount built around the MagSafe technology for Apple iPhones. You can attach this mount with an adhesive to a wall (or furniture) and attach your iPhone with the power of magnets. Read the instructions, as this is a non-trivial project.

The Magnets

This model is based on the cylindrical 6x3mm magnets. By no means are these magnets the best ones to use, but they are something that I had in stock. Take the model and remix it for your needs.

The Orientation

(Check the images). You need to take one of the magnets and put it on the back of an iPhone with the MagSafe feature. The line that goes through your magnet poles should be parallel to the back of the iPhone, and it should be pointing towards that center of the MagSafe circle. If you put in it the wrong direction, the magnet will fall on its flat side (then the pole-line will be perpendicular to the iPhone). Make sure that the magnet stays in the orientation when its pole points towards the center of the MagSafe circle, and you can confidentiality move the magnet (MagSafe magnetism will aid you).

Inserting magnets

You need to print to the height where the magnet holes are still open. Then pause the printer before the layer on top of the magnet holes is printed. Insert the magnets, and continue. To help you:

1. View the 3MF file with the pause gcode
2. Look at the video of how my pause is working: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uETtXw9yGMo
3. Read about hot the pause is implemented: https://terpuh-labs.com/smart-mid-print-magnet-insertion-on-prusa-mk3s/
