For the Prusa CORE One, I created a small plate/sheild to help prevent debris from accumulating into the Z-Axis motors.  When designing the plate, I made sure the plate's height was lower than the Z-axis mounting screws as to not affect Z calibration (or any other function).  (Yeah, I should probably do a better job cleaning up after every print, but, oh well, life happens.) 

You will only need to print 3 items.  One for the front right, one for the front left and one for the rear.  See photos for details.

For this project, two separate plates were created.  One with magnets and one without.  The one without magnets works perfectly fine, but the one with magnets does better job of insuring the plates stay in place.  I am 99.9% sure that I used the following magnets:

Regarding the magnets, they are currently inserted with a friction fit. But you might want to add a little Super Glue to ensure they stay in place. 

I hope to upload the FreeCAD file I used to design this plate/shield soon.
