Cheap neodymium magnets are rated to max 80 degrees centigrades. It is not a good idea to heat insert those. You may use the 120 degrees or 150 dergees ones safely though. Great channel, Joe. Good luck with your maker and youtuber carrier 🙂
Thank you for your comment. Yes you are absolutely right. Caution needs to be exercised when heating these probably best just to use a press fit and I can do that. Also with a drill press I have a video on that. Take care. Joe.
Heating magnets tends to de-magnetize them. The fact that the magnets used to test polarity continued to attract a single side would suggest the magnets didn't lose all of their alignment but very likely most of it. You could use a sacrificial magnet to make the correctly sized hole for another un-heated magnet.
You make an excellent point. I did put a disclaimer in warning not to keep these above their Curie point. I also have a video on using a drill press with a pin punch probably the best way to insert magnets into 3-D printer parts and there's no risk of demagnetizing. Thank you for your comment. Consider subscribing. Thanks Joe
Also quick point if I used a sacrificial magnet unfortunately there almost impossible to get out once there placed. So I think the drill press with a pen punch method is probably the way to go to keep some perfectly lined up perfectly vertically placed in if you're careful and use a pen punch that has a diameter wider than the magnet you should not over insert these.
Thank you for your question. Yes I do and I will try to forward that to you. I did get it from printable which is from Prusa consider subscribing. Thanks. Joe I had to modify that a little bit by the way to get the soldering iron tip to fit, but it was easy.
Thank you so much for the file. I really injoy your videos, they are very informative and you explain everything very will and at a perfict pace.I just ordered the Prusa XL 5 head and the encloser from ali express. hopefully I will get the printer in a few months. They said 7-8 weeks. I have a few bambu printers now but am looking forward to my new prusa. Keep up the good work and look forward to watching more of your videos.@@JosephHunstad
Great question. You’ll see I have a disclaimer that says that heating these above their Currie 0:02 point will demagnetize them. These are neodymium magnets so you have to be cautious with heating them. I also have another video on using a drill press with a pin punch as basically an arbor press to place magnets. That’s a great way to do it. also that avoids any risk of demagnetizing. Thanks for your question. Very observant. Consider subscribing. Thanks Joe.

do you have an stl for that heat press tip container

doesnt heating magnets with high heat demagnetize them? Especially using earth magnets or "the stonger" magnets???
