Neat one, works nice although if you don't glue correctly the head with the shaft, the magnet may not have a good surface with the moving part of the printer, and the head does not spin correctly, other than this, works nice.
You can use a Snap-Joint (cantilever snap joint) to join the head with the rod :)
I'm looking forward for V2. (edited)
@rbid thank you for the suggestion! I’ll definitely look into adding the cantilever snap joint :)
@Berntzone Another small change make the tolerance between the base and the rod bigger, not all have calibrated printers out there.
Made a physical copy in Prusament Vanilla White and I'm super happy with it! It was a little bit fiddly to glue the head to the shaft, but everything else went great!
