After designing the jack, and 3D printing it, put a drop of a glue under the magnet, then insert the copper sheet and bend it in both ways as you see in the pictures. drill a hole where the screw should go (in the copper sheet) Use metal M3 screws to fix the wires that you will connect..

This design is for a 1mm thickness/5mm diameter magnet.

If you want my STL file of the design, just drop me a comment.

Happy connecting!
