I'm still new to 3D printing and CAD, so I wanted to take a stab at my own frame for a drybox that I am making. This is a little over-engineered compared to other designs that I have seen.

I had some 4mm X 1.5mm magnets handy, so that it what I used. The fit was tight; I used a rubber mallet to press them into the holes. There is a little bit of play on the sides of the hygrometer.

I made the CAD drawing in OnShape and the outer dimensions of the hygrometer, the hygrometer mounting tabs, and the magnet dimensions are all variables in my drawing. If I have done everything correctly, the document should be public and you can make a copy to modify it to your own needs.
