I have a big one of these I made with a large Magnetron magnet but it just won't fit in small places so I made a smaller one.

I ordered these Magnets from Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074BP1FR8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Unfortunately they were not 1.26 inches in diameter but were 1.16 inches in diameter so I made a second set of files to accommodate the magnets I received. I see a lot of magnets advertised as 1.26 inches or 32mm. Mine were closer to 29.5mm.

Anyway both sets of files are present and you can print a cap with .5 inch or .75 inch. .75 inch dowel worked well but you could use .5 inch or print a .5 inch solid and bore to the rod size you might have available.

The spring is from a old 4 inch sprinkler head.

I used 3 magnets, but 2 would be fine. Too many magnets and it might pull parts past the barrier when you pull back to release the parts. Sometimes a part might go past the barrier but a second pull usually gets it to drop.

Cheers
