A

So we've got the for the universal put past late, so so this carriages will be an x-axis will be able to handle all kinds of different tools. One is that you can stick the extruder on it, but this thing needs magnets, so it's actually very simple. You get once you have major extruder head with the magnets on one side, take some more magnets and now it's easy, because this is your pattern, so you put them on 10 total.

A

They only go one way because of polarity, so once we have the actual magnetic mountain, which is all the same polarity, this will also likewise be all same correct, polarity.

A

Okay, so that's that.

A

Now this is going to fit exactly against the pattern of your carriage. This is going to.

B

Be on the x-axis.

A

So we're gonna glue this on together keep the bolt heads exposed, so you can unscrew it from the back like after the shooter is on in case you need to it doesn't really matter, but that's good. So with that we take on once again do a little bit of the glue. Let's demonstrate that so.

B

You you're, probably gonna, want to be extra conservative with glue on the first pass right and then put more on when you pull it off, so you don't accidentally glue them together. Yeah.

A

You don't want to pull them together, but I mean not extra conservative enough so because, because we had a lot of people popping, you.

B

A

B

A

Off the plastic so putting out that it's not a problem, so just do that. One more time.

A

Okay- and it doesn't matter up or down, is fine, because this thing is symmetric.

A

Okay, so that that just stays on by itself like that, so the magnets will now dry, and this will be a magnetic mount that you can now remove the tool head from this and replace it with some other tool that if you have it like a laser, you can totally switch out laser or this kind of peg. Okay. So that's it.
