Box – Magnetic Open & Lock
Please support oliverdias by Liking/Boosting their Print on MakerWorld.
Built-in magnetic closure system and an auto-opening mechanism . When closed, magnets securely hold the tray shut. With a slide of the release switch, the tray pops open automatically thanks to the magnets.
• Magnets : 6 in total 6mm x 3mm
• Polarity matters : Ensure magnets are installed so they attract when the case is closed and push when you wanna open it
• Tip: Let two magnets naturally snap together, then mark one side with a marker
• Add a drop of super glue (CA glue).
•
• The sliding switch locks and releases tray
• Its easiest inserted from underneath - Step1
• Tilt the switch at an angle - Step 2
• Once aligned, press it gently from above until you hear or feel a soft click. I used a pen to press down the slider
• Slide the switch back and forth to confirm smooth motion and latch release.
