Bonus Files HERE!!!
Although the Mini Gnomes didn't win the Exclusive poll, I thought it would make a perfect Bonus!
There are 3 versions with STL and 3MF options (all zipped into one folder):
- Standard Mini
- Captured Magnet (8x3)
- Keychain
For the Captured magnets use 8x3 magnets HERE
*For those of you that have never tried captured magnets, I made a quick tutorial.
(The tutorial is for Bambu Slicer, but should translate to other slicers.)

I beefed up the joints, and shrunk them down a lot, so I don't recommend going smaller. As usual, you can always go larger and I have printed up to 200% as examples :)
For the Captured magnets, I decided to go with a single 8x3 magnet this time, which holds really great. If you have smaller magnets laying around, I don't see why they wouldn't also work. (They just may not hold as well). Larger magnets have been requested, so I wanted to try it out for this design.
Print tips and Info:
STL and 3MF files are included. * If you use the 3mf file, please remember that it is a painted project file for your convenience. You must check your material/printer/settings to make sure it works correctly for your printing project.
I print with, 15% infill/gyroid, .12 or .16 layer height for quality. I did reduce to 10% infill for the larger gnomes.
As usual, make sure you have good adhesion. A glue stick works or I have switched to using on all my machines... a BIQU Cryopgrip Frostbite adhesion plate.
Gradient PLA works well with this model: I have a comprehensive list of Filament I use here: Amazon List
