Magnetic locking cover for child proofing (or elderly proofing) the stove.

 

After a bunch of burnt foods and dry pots being left on a burning stove, we decided we needed a solution.  It needed to be a bit better than the standard squeeze or other solution that works on kids without the dexterity or problem solving skills.  This has a locking pin that uses gravity to lock and a magnet to lift.  Simple design and because I know its not a perfect fit for every stove, I added the fusion file so you can modify to fit your needs.  

 

Uses a 6.4 mm x 1.6 mm magnet. 

No Supports Needed

 

double check your magnetic pull, add a little CA glue to keep in in the pin, add a little CA glue for the locking pin cover. Don't let the glue get in the pin shaft.
