Vision 11 Mag-Lev Belt buckle

This is the Vision 11 Mag-Lev belt.

A magnetic latch system inspired by the famous Alyx/Cobra belts.

What you need:

1. All the parts Printed.
2. 5mm diameter magnets (2mm or two 1mm stacked)
3. Raw filament bits to use as connector tabs.

How to assemble:

1. Grab the two “latch” pieces aswell as the “Male” piece and insert the magnets according to the diagramm in the 4th picture.
2. Take the two “Latch” pieces and insert two 3mm (12mm length and preferrably out of metal since they take most of the load) pins into them until the rod sits in the middle of the piece (the “latch” Pieces should be assembled as in picture 5 before the female assembly gets put together.
3. take the “FemPlate” parts and sandwich the “Female” and the “latch Parts between them using your filament bits as connectors. (cut the filament bits a little longer than needed, then melt one end a little to create a ”plastic nail", once the assembly is put together you can cut the access off and melt the other end to lock the pieces in place.) IMPORTANT: Make shure you put the latches in the right position so the male and female part don't repell each other!
4. The male assembly is basically the same thing. Functionally, the plates on the male part are not needed. but to complete the look you can add them.
5. now all thats left to do is to insert the belt strap (38-40mm wide works best)

If you have any questions please let me know and i will update the description.
