Description

PDF

My washingmachine has a touch capacitive power button, this was unintentionally turned off mid cycle by bumping against the machine. this cover is designed to prevent unintentionally swiping over the button while also allowing anything that falls on the switch (dust, etc) to drop out which my current ring design does not allow.

 

Fits over a 20mm button 25mm wide in total.

 

I printed at 0.1 mm layer height with a 0.4mm nozzle with Black eSun ABS+ as I had that loaded.

Model origin

The author remixed this model.

Differences of the remix compared to the original

While this works currently as the washing machine is under the kitchen counter sometimes dust/crumbs fall into the ring and are a pain to clean out. My v2 design allows these things to simply drop out the bottom.
