About this model
This design is a compact, switchable magnetic base compatible with a variety of printed tools i designed including a phone stand, a camera stand, a vice and various translation stages. It can be used to place a phone or camera on any magnetic surface, a sample on a microscope plate or a device on an optical breadboard. This design uses cylindrical magnets 12 mm wide and 3 mm thick. There are two versions using respectively 10 and 20 magnets. It also uses 1 mm thick, 12mm washers. The washers should have a center hole as small as possible, M2 washers are best, M3 also work. Do not use stainless steel washers as they are not magnetic. Nickel plated of plain steel washers work best. Of course if you have 12mm steel bars at hands, using 3mm segments will be even better, i used washers as it is…
