Heater Dial

My wife bought one of these heaters for her office where she worked and wasn't long before the dial broke on it due to thin cheap plastic. While I was looking at it to fix it, she bought a second one…. which broke even quicker, stupid cheap shoddy plastic. They both had the flat thin plastic bit break right off. 

First ugly replacement I replacement I printed months ago worked fine, but with more practice comes better outcomes. 

So I decided to revisit this and fix the second while improving both.

Here is my from scratch attempt for a better OEM looking dial. I think it looks pretty good if I don't say so myself.

6.2mm Shaft Hole, which snuggly fits on the 6 mm it's being used on.

11.2mm deep

38mm Diameter Dial

17.77 mm in Height

I printed this in PETG but ABS or ASA may be more suited and you won't have to fight some of the battles I did below due to combating the reflective nature of PETG. While also getting a bit more in heat resistence.

I think the extra 15 - 20 Mins for the two color print in order to have the text Pop from the dial is worth it.

But I gave you the option between the two print profiles. 

Biggest advantage was just ironing all solid surfaces!
