This was a recent woodworking project that I ended up using the 3D printer so much on, I decided to post it here. No one else may end up doing the exact same thing, but maybe you can incorporate part of it into a future project.
The actual project was building matching (mirror image) nightstands for myself and my wife. I wanted to incorporate a wooden pushbutton switch that would control an outlet for a lamp. This way you're not fumbling around in the dark trying to find the switch for the lamp.
The beauty of this whole project is that even though the 3D printer was heavily relied upon, none of the 3D printed parts are seen in the final product. They were all either tools/jigs used while building it, or are mounted inside the cabinet out of sight.
Just in case anyone wants some or all of these parts, I've included links to everything I used below:
Push On/Push Off 115v Switch
