Description

I noticed that there was some wobble on the base plate of the Prusa enclosure when it was printing. I modified one of the stock feet so that it was slightly taller and so that a magnet could be installed. I then placed it under the plate, now the flex on this plate is much reduced. 

This foot adds extra support and vibration isolation under the the printer. 

The magnet I used has a diameter of 12.67 mm and a thickness of 1.72 mm. So don't buy larger or thicker than this and you should be ok. 

9/19/2024:

Added caps V3 and V2, V2 has a slightly wider hole for the magnet so it seats easier

V3 has removed material from inside the cap so the magnet sits closer to top. It has a stronger force of attraction but the tool does not work as well for screwing it in. I recommend printing the parts with a 0.1 mm layer height for the threaded parts, greasing them, and then grip it with some pliers and gently rotate it into place.

You will also need some anti-slip pads. If you have the Prusa enclosure you should end up with 4 left over so you will be able to make at least 2.
