XL5T Enclosure Magnets

Upper magnets are not strong enough to hold the bellows up. I can get them to stay up but if I breath on them they collapse. Not what I expect from an expensive enclosure.

Strange. Mine are holding the bellows strongly.

Are you sure that you mounted the magnets  correctly?

I will take some photos of my upper magnet setup. I am absolutely certain they are as described in the setup documentation.

It looks correct. 

If you test the upper magnets by placing some metal object on the magnet - is it holding the object strongly? If you put the one umounted upper magnet assembly on the bellows - is it connected strongly? There must not be a space between bellows frame and the upper magnet assembly.

The magnets hold a metal object just fine. The unmounted magnet sticks to the bellows just fine.

Ok, so then it looks fine. Are both upper magnet assemblies aligned to the printer frame? Is the bellows upper frame attached to the both upper magnet assemblies without any space?
