Info:
- original model by @kriswillcode is awesome, I just needed as small dimensions as possible, so it can be used in my other project
- note: i have used this in https://www.printables.com/model/167164-dlsr-camera-attachable-lens-clickable-shutter-butt
- so I am publishing it
- it is for insertion in a hole inside other models
- that is why, it does not have full covered body
Insert hole dimensions:
- in your model to insert this switch, you need rectangle hole:
- see attached insert_negative_volume.stl (this part is not for printing! :)
- rectangle:
- width: 1.91cm
- depth: 0.99cm
- => with 0.15cm tolerances on all sides for easy insert/remove, can be decreased for more tight insertion
- height: at least 3.85cm, but may be higher, it depends also on the height of your button top cap (the visible part which you will insert on the shaft), so adjust this for your model
Features:
- minimized dimensions, width is only 1.88 cm (instead of 3.2 cm in original model)
- i decreased unimportant inner dimensions while leaving important tolerances as in original
- redirected spring hooks - so it is hooked to the inside
- i have cutted off outer shell, because outer shell will be done by a hole in other model
- upper part of the vertical shaft is ready for any button shape cap you like, even rounded
- i needed round button cap with angled surface
- that can be easily achieved by printing only different caps, while the inner things of this switch will be the same
- slider part is the only part same as in original
- clicking sound as in original
Print info:
- ability of printing any caps (even round) requires now little support for vertical shaft
- see 3mf
- see original model tips: https://www.printables.com/model/71100-mechanical-switch-fidget-click/files
- most importantly no elephant foot printer
Assembly:
- use standard pen spring
- in original https://www.printables.com/model/71100-mechanical-switch-fidget-click/files there are also other useful tips like:
- using oil or wax for more smooth action
