Notos Mag Remix

I love William Hemmingsen's Notos magazine, (Thanks William!") but I was having some binding issues and lacked some small parts. So I made a couple small changes. I did not make any changes to the wheel, so please grab that from William's original model.

Due to my printer tolerances I was getting some binding between the pellet stopping post and the inside of the mag wheel. I removed .25mm from edge and top of post which fixed my issues.

I didn't have the correct size heat insert, mine made the center post buldge so much I took alot of work to fix it to fit the wheel or I had to ream the wheel alot. So I removed the insert and direct threaded a 3mm screw into the body. 

I also didn't have tiny screws to fit the faceplate pin spot, I used a piece of filament as a pin in the corner. I can still remove the faceplate if I need to after removing the center screw.

I also changed the magnet size to fit 6x1.5mm magnets that I had on hand. You may need to carefully ream the hole with a ¼" or 6mm drill bit by hand depending on your printer settings and tolerances.

A small tip to help with bending the springs, gently heat the last 1.5cm or so with a lighter until the blue disappears and the metal is grey or a slight straw colored. This removes the heat treat and prevents cracking and breaking.
