Mood or availability Indicator
Print Profile(1)

Description
My nephew is non verbal autistic, I felt it would be useful for his parents to have some indication of how he is feeling, it also occurred to me that this could also be used in the office to indicate how approachable you are at the moment i.e. Red = “bugger off I am busy”, Yellow = “bring me a coffee and I could make time for you” and Green = “What do YOU want”, the possibilities are endless
I have seen several on here but all required more work than necessary, I prefer to try and keep it simple, hence this model
AMS is not required, I have split the model over 4 plates to allow for easy colour changing (the exception is the wording on the front of the case, I have set a pause point at 100 to allow for a filament change) the wording can be changed by selecting it in the objects menu and editing the text.
The knob will need a drop of super glue
The mood blocks will need printing 3 times, if you reduce the depth you could add a photo, Adding text to them could also be of use, you could print more blocks as required to indicate other states.
Dimensions:
In mm as Length/height*Width*Depth
Case: 60 * 157 * 16.2 (Name plate is 15*150*5, supports get generated)
Pointer: 40 * 50 * 2.5
Mood Blocks: 50 * 50 * 5
Pointer Knob: 12.5 20 20 (The knob has a 7*3*3 hole in it for an M3 screw, however you will need a countersunk head and you will need to supply the hole)
Materials:
I printed this in PLA
I believe all model descriptions should include relevant dimension information, stating unit used i.e mm or inches etc. for a standard print
