Ninja Fridge Shuriken
Description
Yay! Ninjas in your kitchen! This is a printable "Shuriken" fridge magnet.
SHOW EVERYONE YOUR NINJA PRINTING SKILLS! :-D
Updated: Version 103 has more user-friendly parameters. The 103.stl has an altered impact angle. So if you plan on printing more than one: Download and print both STLs for a more natural "ninja attack" look :-)

Instructions
The design is parametric (but very, very dirty). You can actually create a 2-, 3- or 5-bladed shuriken as well! (variable "NUM")
You need a "standard" 12 x 7 x 2mm neodyne magnet (had some lying around), but you can also alter the SCAD file to fit your own magnet size (see module "magnet", first "cube()").
1.) Print it (about 30min)
2.) Snap/glue a magnet in
3.) Enjoy!
I got my magnets here (Germany): magnet-shop.com/Neodymium-Magnets/Blockmagnets/Blockmagnet-12-x-7-x-2-mm-N44H-Nickel-pull-force-15-kg::53.html

In case you don't have any mangets of the right size laying around, you can also break a hard drive magnet into an appropriately-sized piece. Don't try to cut them, use a glass cutter (or a sharp mill- or drill-bit) instead.
A drop of super glue will hold the magnet in place securely.

Absolutely have to print this once I know the size of my magnets. Verry nice.

I am not good with Open SCAD. How do I make the hole work with a small (8mm by 2mm) round neodymium magnet?
First you should model your magnet as a stand-alone module. Try "cylinder()" for a round magnet.
When you're done, just replace the code of my module called "magnet" with yours and you should be good.
Refer to any OpenSCAD tutorial for further information.
