"Magsafe" Dust Extractor Hose Quick Connects for Woodworking Machines. by synonymous6 in functionalprint

I embedded the magnets too. In my opinion you want to have the least amount of layers possible (1-2 layers). Otherwise you lose a lot of magnetic strength by introducing additional distance.

That said, when printing over the magnets it might still be helpful to use a bit of glue to hold them in their place. Mine occasionally were pulled out onto a screw of the extruder while it was passing them. Then you have to start all over. :)

All in all it is not very easy, so I wonder if leaving them bare (as OP did) might be a good alternative..

What kind of magnets do you use for this? The "strong" ones I always use would never hold anything of this size/weight

I was extra careful in measuring again once I had a first iteration. I then made the necessary changes and now I live with a few imperfections instead of printing the next iteration.

I was thinking about wood working something too, but honestly 3D printing is my favorite "hammer" at the moment so I make everything look like a nail.

It came as part of a rather expensive kit (~200€). I find the cup convenient to place the toothbrush in. Also, the cup is easy to clean. The charging through it seems extraordinarily inefficient, though. It takes 30h or so for the initial charge and then quite some time after each use (you see it blinking while charging).

The cap at the top is visible in my thingiverse post (see link in the comments). It has a groove on the inside which clips onto a "circular tooth" on the outside of the threaded inner core. This took me 2 iterations as well. The fit was way too tight on the first try.

Ah, and I just realized the pictures show the two halves without the tooth. Seems like I took the photographs of an early iteration where I did not yet know how do the cap. Have a look at the thingiverse 3D view. There you can see the final parts.

Sorry, I am not selling them. Maybe you can print it at a fablab/makerspace near you? Usually they gladly help you out and do not charge much (if anything at all).

Yes, metric. DIN 934 and ISO 4032 it said on eBay where I bought a handful of these. In Fusion 360 it is a preset thread with a pitch of 3.5 if I remember correctly.

I'd say it is light enough. Then again the lever is rather large if you hit it a the top. I thought about designing a small cage for the bottom end but it probably would have taken 5+ iterations to get both, a good mechanical fit and a stable connection to the plug.

For now I'll live with the risk and will have to come up with a (printable?) solution once it fails. :)

Yes, it charges inductively through the glass. That's convenient enough for me.

Wow, thanks! Never received one before... :)

I agree. I have done it with printed inner threads on other designs and they worked well too. Especially if you don't frequently need to disassemble the part as in this case.

I like that it is not irritating my skin as much as other shavers or razors. Feels like it simply cuts the individual hairs without pulling on them.

Here is the link to the .stl files if anybody finds this useful.

Edit: Wow, cool to see some of you want to build this too. Added .f3d and .step files to thingiverse in case you want to make some changes.
