14 pieces total.

The base will require support but can be printed without. The backside is not visible when installed so it is up to you on how you want to print it. I used Geeetech Metal PLA and Geeetech PLA Bronze Rainbow filament for this project.

It will require glue to hold it together. It is simple to put together but will require a little effort to install the pins into the handle. This gives it a tight feel vice a wobbly loose feel when moving the switch on and off. 

Way Engineered Light Switch Assembly Instructions

Items needed: Glue that sticks to the filament.

3D printed parts list: 

(A) - Base Plate

(B) – Flat Gear

(C) – Round Gear

(D) – Pins x4

(E) - End Caps x4

(F) – Lever Arms x2

(G) – Handle

Step 1: Place Base Plate (A) flat onto the surface and take Flat Gear (B) and center it onto Base Plate (A).

Step 2: Take Round Gear (C) and place it between the two raised parts on Base Plate (A) and place it centered onto Flat Gear (B). 

Step 3: Take x2 of the Pins (D) and insert them into Round Gear (C). Insert them and allow 10mm of protrusion to install Lever Arms (F) and End Caps (E).  

NOTE – I placed glue inside the round gear and onto the pins so that the pins stay tight inside the round gear. Let the glue cure before installing Lever Arms and End Caps.

Step 4: Take Handle (G) and place x2 Pins (D) into the handle. Lightly taping Pins will aid with installation. Allow between 9 to 10mm of protrusion of Pin from Handle to allow installation of Lever Arms and End Caps.

Step 5: Take Handle (G) and install x1 Lever Arm (F) onto Handle. 

Step 6: Take the Handle with 1x Lever Arm installed and install it onto the Pin that is installed into the Round Gear. Ensure the Round Gear is centered onto the Flat Gear when installing Lever Arms. Lever Arms will be vertical during installation.

Step 7: Take the other Lever Arm and install it onto other side. 

Step 8: Once both Lever Arms are installed, install End Caps (E) on all Pins using glue to hold them in place. Allow glue to cure and have fun with your Way Engineered Light Switch!!
