This 3 Button Box takes Cherry MX Switches and 4 strand 20 gauge silicone wire which you can grab here:

It is designed for the front panel of an enclosure so you can toggle lights, vent fan and start or stop a print without having to log into octoprint directly.
The cherry mx keys snap fit into place in the box. You can print customizable keycaps for the functions of each button.
The silicone wire is pinch fit into the box and 4 strand wire allows for 3 buttons + Ground to be fed back into your raspberry pi. Use double sided tape to stick the back of the box to the enclosure, and then should you need to rewire the box you can pull it off the front for maintenance.
This box is part of a larger product guide on how to set up an OctoPrint enclosure for your 3d printer, coming soon.
