Print Instructions:

You will need to print two of these. I printed at .15mm layer height using Hatchbox ABS, no supports.

Assembly:

I soldered the wires together as shown in the video listed above, then hot glued the switch to one side of the clam-shell. You could probably use CA glue as well, but I wanted the option to be able to take this apart again. Then I applied hot glue on the other side of the clam shell and pressed it on top of the piece that I started with.
