I found my Core One door to deform and crack open and rattle when the chamber temperature exceeds 50° C, so I wanted to add stronger magnets to the door. I experimented with other mods first, but found that only MORE MAGNETS would really make a difference. 6x3 cylindrical magnets are quite common and I had some lying around, so I modified an existing mod to use lots of them.
Printing instructions
Print in 0.2mm layer height, to ensure there's 3 layers above the magnet holes. I used ASA to print mine, but you can probably get away with PETG. The original ones seem to be made from PETG anyways.
Assembly
The press fit of the magnets is quite tight. I used a vise to force the column of 6x3 magnets into the holes. The square nut is much looser, but since it's screwed tight eventually, I guess that's fine.
