This tool uses an embedded 6×2 magnet to spin another magnet to known polarity, then grip it and insert it into a pocket. The inserted magnet does not need to be the same size. There are both north-up and south-up versions. The label is the pole that is facing you.

The model itself was done by scratch from me. It was inspired by @Clough42’s tool in his recent video but is longer to be more ergonomic. If you prefer a smaller version, try @trses’.

You will need to add a pause to insert the tool’s own magnet before the layer that covers it. The top of the magnet is at 2.5mm. In PrusaSlicer, that means put a pause on the first layer shown covering the magnet. I assume 0.25mm layers but that is probably not critical.

Optionally, add a color change before the polarity letter starts.

For remixes, you may like to start with the OnShape source document.

Out-of-focus cats neither included nor required.
