During printing, pause the print to embed the two magnets, ensuring they are placed in the correct orientation.

Assembly:

• Join the Hinges
  Align the hinges of both halves of the palette. Insert the 63 mm filament piece through the hinge to act as a pin. Leave approximately 1.5 mm sticking out on each end.
• Secure the Hinge Pin:
  Using a lighter, soldering iron, or hot knife, carefully heat each end of the filament pin and gently flatten it. This forms a rivet-like end that holds the pin in place securely.
