I lost the my shutter speed dial, and the cheapest parts cameras I could find were $50+. 3D printing to the rescue!

I was at a festival the other day, when I realized a screw had loosened letting my shutter speed dial escape.
A dejected ebay search revealed no spare parts listings, and the cheapest parts cameras were still way more than I wanted to spend. I was feeling pretty bummed out until I realized I had a screw that would fit (from another olympus camera), so I worked up this design.
To make the numbers more legible, I painted the top of the dial, and then lightly sanded on a flat surface to remove paint from around the recessed numbers.
I printed mine on a resin printer, but if you don't care about the numbers (or plan to add them yourself) it might work on an FDM machine. It's designed to work without the stock wave spring washer, because (go figure) I lost that too.
I don't think anyone is going to have this exact problem on this exact camera, but if you do, hopefully this is helpful. Let me know if you want me to resize the center hole for a different screw head size. Happy printing!
