Magnetic Cable SleeveIf you’re tired of cables sprawling all over your desk, this project might be the solution. It’s a 3D printed cable sleeve that snaps shut with magnets, keeping things tidy while looking pretty neat too.The idea comes from 3D printed fabrics (flexible, interlocking parts) but here it’s adapted into a cable management system. The sleeve is made up of repeating sections that link together and close around your cables using magnets, so you can make it as long as you want. Printing :The main thing to get right is bed adhesion. A clean build plate goes a long way, so make sure to wipe it down before starting this print. Assembly :Magnets press into the holes on each side piece and should be fixed in place with a drop of super glue. ⚠️ Double, triple, quadruple-check your magnet polarity before gluing! Opposite edges need to attract, otherwise the sleeve won’t close properly. Parametric model :The model is fully parametric, so you can adjust the sleeve’s length and diame
