I integrate the magnet for the reed switch in the 3D housing. Seems to work perfect. There could be a corrosion issue in the long run for the neodumium magnet (6*3), but this can easily be replaced. The magnet is exactly in front of the reed switch, but the orientation N-S is in the direction that the reed switch will not trigger. Only if you move the magnet 3 mm out of the center, the reed switch will trigger.
3D designs are public in onshape :

Hi Jan, awesome idea. I'm no expert in Onshape but appears everyone can 'look' at your design but can't download the STL to print or modify. I'm sure your intention was to share freely. Possibly some setting you need to change?Separately, what are the white rods you are using for the strap holders? Fiberglass? I've been using carbon rods. Which is best?

Posted my best video of Fangy earlier (again here) but much of my YT channel was motivated by Ross and playing around with fins. At least 30 other fin videos directly inspired by him there if you want to go looking...still piles of vids of stuff we were playing around with I need to get around to making.
