Magnetic Pac-Man Decoration

Inspired by the iconic Pac-Man game, I designed a unique decoration for the living room, specifically tailored to make use of the metal parts of the IKEA FJÄLLBO furniture. This creation features 3D-printed pieces with embedded magnets, offering easy and modular attachment.

Included pieces:

• 1 Pac-Man
• 2 ghosts (with different eye designs)
• 1 cherry
• 1 small dot
• 1 large dot

Additional materials required:

• Magnets: 10 mm diameter, 2 mm thickness (Pac-Man, ghosts, cherry, large dot).
• Magnets: 5 mm diameter, 2 mm thickness (small dot).

Technical specifications:

• Printer used: Prusa Mini+
• Nozzle: 0.4 mm
• Layer height: 0.15 mm
• Filaments used:
  • Polymaker Polyterra Charcoal Black
  • Polymaker Polyterra Fossil Grey
  • FormFutura EasyFil ePLA Traffic Yellow
  • FormFutura EasyFil ePLA Luminous Bright Orange
  • Prima Select PLA Blue
  • Prima Select PLA Red
  • 3DJAKE ecoPLA White
  • 3DJAKE ecoPLA Pink

Printing instructions:

File preparation:

• Import the files as a project in PrusaSlicer.
• Required pauses ([M601] for inserting magnets and [M600] for color changes) are preconfigured.

Handling the magnets during printing:

• Ensure the correct orientation of the magnets before inserting them.
• Magnets will stick firmly to the printer’s metal plate, preventing movement during the print.
