The base plate will require support for a clean look. You can get away without support since the backside is not visible when installed. It's your preference. I used Geeetech Metal PLA and Geeetech PLA Bronze Rainbow filament for this project.

It looks great in those colors!

Another great print. Kids wanted one to match the camping colors in their bathroom.

Came out great, did some embellishing with silver paint to bring out the rivets and features. That support material underneath is super shallow and a pain in the butt to remove, would love to try with just strategic supports every few cm to see if it'd be easier

It was a pain for me at first too. Then I grabbed a razor and set it shallow. Then, cut the larger square out on the back. When I started pulling at the larger square, the whole back part came off at once.

great model, my son loved it. unfortunately it broke the first time he used it as kids are tough. I’m going to reprint with thicker walls or petg.

Is there anyway to only print these? Mine printed short

The designer has replied

@B3N3D

yes, if you use the cut tool in Bambu Studio you can get rid of everything but the pins.

@ShadowMint

YO this is sick!

The designer has replied

@B3N3D

Thank you! I originally made a single switch version and kept getting requests for a double. Now I'm waiting to get the triple switch requests lol

@user_4124570521

Replying to @B3N3D :

I would love a triple!

@B3N3D

@ShadowMint it's in work! It's a bit of a science project but it's coming along! It'll be done this weekend

@ShaneBlake

(Updated). This has been absolutely impossible to get together without breaking the pins. They’re just too big and too fragile to fit through the gears or through the handle. I’m going to try and reprint the handles a percent or two larger and hope that the next set fits without breaking. My suggestion would be to make the pins square instead of a plus giving them more strength internally and making them slightly smaller than the gears and the handles so that they’re easier to slide through. i’ll update this comment later if I’m able to get it working, but for now I just have a disappointed nine year-old. Update: Got it assembled and working. Kid’s excited, but it was a pain. Definitely needs tweaking.

Printed and assembled relatively easy with a part breaking during my assembly. But the giant issue is the fact of how hard it is to screw it on the light switch. I had to remove a ton of material from the bottom for it to screw on.
