Hi all, this is my first mix from files found here.
I loved the sci-fi look of [CaptObvious's](https://www.thingiverse.com/CaptObvious/about) switch box, but I only had a salvaged 250vac illuminated rocker switch available.
After a quick search, I ran across [Shapescribe's](https://www.thingiverse.com/Shapescribe/about) switch box built just for it.
With this version, the front is printed whole with the body, requiring supports inside.
My finished product took advantage of BBs (as in BB gun) with CA glue to fill the front (top) screw holes, and give the appearance of a mechanical fastener. If I had been using a 12vdc setup, I would have probably left those holes open, and put RGB lighting inside so it would show through the tiny holes.
Afterward, everything was sprayed with filler-primer, and various paints to attempt a weathered look.
The rectangular hole is a touch wide for my switch, but your results may vary.
Have fun, and may your only limit be set by your
