This waste bin for the back of the QiDi Q2 printer is magnetically attached and easy to remove and reattach assuming you have easy access to the back of your printer. It consists of two parts: a bracket that you screw into the back of the printer into the 2 holes that QiDi supplies around the waste chute and the waste bin itself that matches the bracket. You will need 8 round neodymium magnets that are 12mm in diameter and 3mm thick. I printed the parts out of glass filled ASA but that is probably overkill. I used superglue to fasten the magnets in their holes. The tricky thing is finding screws to mount the bracket to the back of the printer. I had one self-tapping screw lying around that worked but it only worked on one of the holes and I used an M3 screw on the other. I wish QiDi supplied screws for this purpose.
I created this in onshape and if you want to modify it, here is the URL for the public document: https://cad.onshape.com/documents/0c06fa6473d7780021d2eef7/w/aec024607900f34ef4b2faf4/e/b9372c6ca0ec431f9e463beb?renderMode=0&uiState=6905fcaab4c3b6c40d9ff007
