Thermapen Holder

The sale price and the one second response time finally broke down my resistance and I bought a Thermapen One. Unlike many similar products, it doesn't have a magnetic back to stick to the side of the refrigerator, so naturally I had to design and print a holder with magnets:

I may need to redesign it though. Apparently the magnet right near the hinge the probe rotates on makes it turn on when I put it in the holder. I should ask ThermoWorks if that is a problem (it does turn off automatically in short order).

The OpenSCAD and STL files are on thingiverse as Thermapen One Holder

I added these v2-* files to the thingiverse model.
