Magnetic Backpack Tube Holder
Jul 12, 2020 - Being one that spends a lot of time outdoors mountain biking and hiking, I am constantly using my CamelBak, which is a backpack with a water pouch and a built in drink tube. Previously, the backpack had a poorly working clip to secure the tube when not in use. This was keeping my eyes off the trail, and I needed a solution.
​
So, I designed a replacement using two strong magnets. This way, the tube could stay securely in place when not in use, and be easily accessible when needed.
​
Although super simple, this project shows how 3D printing can be used to improve and fix everyday products. If you own a CamelBak, go ahead and print this CamelHack!
