Passive tape holders.
30 x 4mm long ( limit of passive feeder length in RV software)
Tape retained by friction-fit bar ( left of image)
Has bumps at side and edns to help stacking.
Takes 5 dia x 3 high neodymium magnet- press fit but suggest putting a drop of cyanoacrylate glue from the top to secure- make sure magnet is completely flush.
As-is, the fixing to the base plate is a bit slippery, so I added cavities on the underside to take some soft feet

You could maybe make something similar in TPU.
The wide ones could probably do with being longer & deeper for taller parts - I'll probably do these as & when needed, as Tinkercad was getting annoyingly slow with all variants in one design

OK these first versions are a bit of a fail :
Handle on cover retainer is too high - clashes with edge of nozzle.
Magnets cause tombstoning of some parts - need to increase height, maybe add provision for washer etc. for shielding
Low height also makes them more tedious to set up.
Will re-do at some point....
I printed some off Thingiverse years ago. They were okay

Maybe use smaller magnets arranged as a Halbach array (https://www.instructables.com/Want-a-Super-Strong-Magnet-Use-an-Array-of-Magnets/) so they have strong field on the underside only?
