Summary

This design uses small & powerful magnets (Buckyballs) that can be a gastrointestinal obstruction hazard. Print at your own risk.

Something to keep the toy horses corralled in.

Print, pop in 5mm Buckyballs, snap together to make a toy corral. (I used generic 5mm spherical magnets from aliexpress - they measured exactly 5mm in my digital calipers)

I'm working on making this a customizable print, but haven't nailed down all of the parameters yet.

Post-Printing

Each piece takes 4 5mm magnets, use a pair of pliers to pop them into place. If the magnets do not require force to insert, try downscaling the object and printing again.
