I modified JCMKK's Mini v3 case.

  • Added 3mm in depth for magsafe compatibility.

  • Added 4mm in width to hide more of the microSD card (added 2mm to each side to keep it symmetrical)

  • Made the hole for the power switch bigger to accommodate the extra width.

  • Positioned the holes for the antennas so that the GPS antenna would be centered instead of hanging off on one side.

I purchased a magnetic ring from amazon and modified it by cutting to ensure proper fit within the compact enclosure, as illustrated below. Printing must be paused at a height of 3.6 mm to allow for insertion of the magnet, enabling its embedding within the 3D-printed case.

Use the 5 magnetic pieces from the top and the 5 magnetic pieces from the bottom. They can be easily cut using some shears.

Might be a good idea to add a little glue when inserting the magnets to avoid the printhead from attaching itself to the magnets.
