I thought designing a dishwasher sign would motivate me to do the dishes more often. Mixed success. Fun project though!

This is the dishwasher indicator I've had stuck to my dishwasher for the past few months. I saw that there was a mechanical marvels contest going on and figured now is as good a time as ever to publish the work! If you ever dreamed of having a chunky mess of exposed gearing attached to your dishwasher I would consider speaking with a professional on the nature of that interest, but living with this is your home may provide some suitable analogue.

The design is quite simple and easy to print, I fit it all on one very quick build. I recommend printing the “sign” model letters side down but depending on how well your printer handles bridging it might be better vertically with supports. Print height also shouldn't be a major factor, I used a draft profile and haven't had any complaints. The main body was held in place with a small dab of super glue and was mounted with some foam mounting tape. I also painted the lettering, but a m600 color swap would definitely add some pop to the design! If there's interest I can revise the design to better suit your needs, I'll admit it stands a little proud off the dishwasher door as-is. I hope you like it, and I look forward to publishing more of my designs!
