4 x M3 x 6mm Bolts for faceplate, Model has M3 modelled threads

Glue, i just used shoe glue, a cheap flexible contact glue, and clamped it the recessed area overnight.

4 x M6 x 10-12mm hex bolts fit into the spindle mount, it is a tight fit, so 10mm would be better for access, or look at a low profile knurled head bolt.

100mm / 4 inch hose hoes and hose clamp.

The magnets should be a firm press fit, i didn't need any glue to hold them in, when fitting, make sure you get the polarity correct on both parts, i tapped them in with a small wooden mallet, so i wouldn't chip them with a normal hammer

The faceplate is removable, so you can do your own thing, i added a blank model, so you can remix and add anything you like, its your machine, go nuts.

I also added a revised scaled down RatRig Logo version of the faceplate, The logo is from DJ_Designs, and i received permission from the designer to share it.

When i comes to printing, i would look at adding some supports for the area between the spindle hole and the dust port.

Use your own judgement when it comes to perimeters and infill, i used 3 perimeters and 30% infill.

I didn't add any supports for the magnet areas and they printed fine on my Prusa MK3S+ in PETG.

As for material, I pretty much only use PTEG, so i don't know how well it would handle with PLA

Anyhow, enjoy printing, post a photo of your print, hopefully you will have less dust around after.
