Magnet installation 

Place the magnets on the installation tool, with the plus sign facing upward. Apply a small dab of super glue to the magnet. Then press the magnet into the pocket. 

For the joining part, place the magnet on the side opposite the plus sign. Ensuring the magnets will be attracted to one another when the parts are assembled.

1 6x3 neodymium magnet

Add a pause after layer 19(3.80mm) to install the magnet. Optionally change the filament color, then resume printing to encapsulate the magnet. I recommend installing the magnet with the north polarity facing upward. If you have a compass you can find the polarity of a magnet.
