Description
Inspired by https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/56687-filament-guide-with-magnets I designed an attachment for my palette 2s pro.
Since I don't use it all the time and my space is limited, I need to store my palette somewhere else. But the product isn't designed that you attach/detach the teflon tube often and I think that is, beside the rubbish power plug, the main negativ point.
I experimented with folding boxes, and this brought me to the idea of the foldable funnel. Just print it with 0.1mm height or even less if possible and then fix it with a drop of glue in the magnetic holder. It is completely symmetric, so orientation doesn't matter. The magnet was a very tight fit and I didn't have to use glue.
The magnet used is the same as in the link mentioned above (outter diameter: 10mm, inner diameter: 4mm, height: 5mm)
Just push in a small piece of teflon tube, put on some double sided adhesive tape and place it on your palette. It is designed that you can always take the cover of the palette off.
Hope you like it and find it useful.
