Comment on pretty basic but I made myself a less mess espresso basket prep ring thing.

I know it’s probably sacrilege, but I avoid the need for one of these by grinding half a dose, tamping a bit then grinding the rest and finishing the tamp. I’m using a Breville Barista Express so couldn’t (easily) use one of these even if I wanted to.
I’m curious how you retain the magnets in it? Are they moulded/printed in, or mechanically added later?
I’m not really a coffee wanker so I don’t know one way or the other what tamping halfway would do. I just want to be able to dump the grounds in, shake, and tamp.
The magnets are just push fit into little holes in the bottom. I just tap them in with blunt nail and a hammer.

I haven’t done much with magnets, but I saw one model where you pause the print halfway through, do magnets into the holes, then continue the print and they get sealed in Amontillado-style.

Pop the magnets into the paused print.
The magnets: "Hahaha. This is a fine joke, good sir!’
Resume print
Magnets: “Yes, a very funny joke indeed. Wait, sir, where are you going! Sir! SIR!!”
Walk away knowing that neither you nor anyone else will see those magnets again

Oh God imagine being 3d printed alive into your casket

Worst part is it taking forever for it to print the casket around you, and you’re just lying there unable to do shit and just watch the casket close around you in ultra slow-mo. Like being buried alive with a tea-spoon for a shovel.
