You can get 0.3x0.1" at HomeDepot in a pinch, but I mostly use 1/4x1/16" from Amazon which are $7/100.

hi! I absolutely love this and I really want to try it but I am not seeing where to download it. Would someone mind helping me out with that? tia
Right click on the image in the first post, and do āSave asā. It should save as an SVG file.
thanks so much!

Magnets I can find ( I am using those from HD you pointed to) finding the metal disks under the 1/4" thick material size is the problem. square or strip would do.
When I havenāt used two magnets, I just use washers.

Love your file and wanting to make. Super new to glowforge. Do I import your svg directly into glow forge and use as is, or do i import into editing software and attach layers etc. I also noticed you have two extra living hinge files thats imported into the file. Are those just for changing size? Sorry Iāve tried googling and not finding out what I need to do. Thanks so much!
Hi there! I did not notice the two extra hinges, they must be left over from testing it out. You can delete them. Whether you load the file directly or use an editor to modify it is completely up to you! You can do some things in the GF interface, but if you wanted to add something to engrave on it you might want to do that in Inkscape or whatever you use, because itās easier to align things there.
Thank you so much for your quick response! I look forward to making your design.

I resized your file a bit smaller (i was gifting money). Your file turned out awesome! I didnāt have a magnet, so used a brad glued to the inside (which worked great for closing), but left inside space limited. So next time I would etch away around the hole for the brad so it was countersunk, so it wouldnāt obstruct the money. But just wanted to thank you again for the file!

This is so cute. Thank you so much for this. I made an envelope purse on the forge for a birthday gift. I will include this piece. It will be a small wallet for ID.

You mean for the magnets? I think I just used proofgrade SD engrave settings, and proofgrade maple plywood for mine.

If I donāt have any proofgrade maple available, what other wood source do you think I could use? I am super new to this, but saw it in the Facebook group and want to try it tomorrow:)

I am not the best person to answer that. I would think anything would be okay, but Iām not sure how the living hinge does with plywood vs hardwood. Maybe just experiment with the hinge on a scrap if you can.
