We wanted to turn these painted minis into tree ornaments, and this is what we came up with. I used magnets!

I’m also really happy about figuring out the print orientation: it prints with the flat front down, so the arch comes out great without supports. Here’s a printables model page for it.

      Actually my first time; I had to order them just for this, and they’re great! Now I have extras ready for the next project.

        Sounds great! Don’t forget: neodymium come in all sorts of tiny sizes and make for super fun electric upgrades (eg. LED lightsabers, moving parts, hidden contact points, etc.) to minis and showpieces. Here’s to your endless exploration of those rabbit holes, friend! FWIW, magnets can close a circuit, but the smaller they are the thinner the barrier between them needs to be. Have fun!
