Dry Erase Marker Clip with Magnet Cutout

I've printed these with some generic PLA (white) and was able to churn out a half-dozen of them fairly quickly in the “upright” position, the same orientation as the close-up photos.

I didn’t have enough "strong-enough" magnets to use with the original model, but I did have a number of 6mm x 2mm magnets to use up, so I sliced off the back side of the original model (fantastic print with minimal material used!) and glued in the magnets I had so they could make direct contact with the whiteboard. 

I did place a sticker-backing from an unused shipping label sticker on top of the magnets (after the glue set up) so that the magnets or glue won't scuff up any surfaces if they weren't perfectly flush… and also to hide my sins of only having plain Loctite super glue on hand.  

This original design was superb with the one strong-enough magnet I did have! I loved how quickly they could be printed, I just needed a good excuse to get rid half the 6x2mm magnets in my stash. 

Reasons I prefer clips over a bin/caddy: 

• A “reachable” bin means that it’s reachable to my cat (who is not allowed to draw on the whiteboard for reasons not suitable to discuss in this post) so I want my markers positioned higher up on the whiteboard. Mounting a bin out of reach from the cat would make it less user friendly.
• The number of markers on my board changes wildly over time. I bring them elsewhere and forget to bring them back, I put off replacing empty markers, I buy a load of new ones, etc. A bin (with slotted spaces or open-air) is a fixed space that will either be half empty or not hold all of the markers I have.
• Depending on the designs, bins in my vicinity also have a tendency to accumulate dust/paperclips/random post-it notes. I need not tempt myself with the additional storage space (at least not where it’s not helpful to me 😄)
