    *disclaimer* Ive purchased a lot of MESO stuff, and I love it all. Super excited he is part of our community.

    Ive never designed (and reverse engineered) something this complicated, nor printed it on my small hobby 3d printer. (nothing like Meso's $20k+ printer) Color, Material and Texture are all yet to be finalized, but man, feels so good. All snaps in very nice and tight. Finally can have the exact button layout Im looking for.

    Thanks guys! Ive been toying with the idea for awhile, seemed very daunting. Once I broke it down into manageable parts it wasnt too bad. Probably have about 10 hours into the modeling.

    If you would've chosen the smaller switches (28mm x 38mm), you'd get more of them in there...maybe.

    If OP chooses to share, I hope he charges for the print at least.
    10hrs of his time ain’t nothing.
    Bunch of free-loaders always asking to benefit from someone else's work.

    The beauty of doing this myself is I can always change it up :) Ive been looking for OEM style SPDT On-Off-On switches, are those that?

    Very interesting! Those must be 3 way switches if they control two different items, but I cant be sure, as the pin outs dont look like what I would expect to see. I went with the tried and true https://www.otrattw.net/Contura-V-5/ as you know exactly what you are getting and can get any combination of graphic and words on the switch. Although, I agree, they are on the bulkier side.

    I prefer Air On Board switches myself. MESO custom panel. Spot and garage are AOB switches.

    I was just looking at that panel trying to figure out my plan and thinking of doing the same thing on my Prusa MK3S. Good to know it can be done, and that is nice! What software did you use? I have fusion360 at home that I am getting familiar enough with to do things in it now.

    Thanks! Im rocking a Prusa MK3 myself. and I did draw it up with Fusion 360. :) Its taken me some time to get used to, but wow is it powerful. being able to go back in the time line to fix a dimension for example, and then back to real time to see the updated dimension in place is one of my favorite features.

    I would have gone with AOB switches if I could find an OEM style 3 way switch from them. I wanted an On-Off-On switch so I could run my lights independently, or auto on with high beam. Works fantastic.

    Nice job.
    I been dabbling in 3D modeling for many years.
    I've amazed myself with the things that can be done.
