Prusa Magnetic Propeller/Stirrer

I ordered a spare CW1 Stainless Steel Tank on Black Friday, along with another MK3S.  I would like to switch the tanks out and have the magnetic propeller/stirrer remain in the tank.  Spares aren't available on the shop website.  The print isn't available in the printable part support section.  Is there a way to print a spare?  I am aware that there is an embedded magnet.

Hi Vincent,

there are 6 embedded magnets and a 7mm Ball bearing, and the STL's are in the CW1 printable parts download

The magnets are 2mm x 6mm x 20mm. Pay attention to the orientation. For the lastest part models look into the repo.

What can you glue the 2 halves together with? Can't think of anything that's solvent friendly? Thanks 🙂

I used some instant glue (Cyanoacrylate). Also, I used my 3D pen to fill the seam and my soldering iron to clean up and weld them together.
