Tried printing base, it was a mess, ran it though netfabb, worked awesome, so please before print, run netfabb

Looks great, but have you done any testing on the effects of prolonged exposure to the button?

Hmm, maybe a weighted storage cube cube could be made heavy enough to activate this...

Printing one off now, just got the button done in red, and printing the ring off in silver plastic. I also resized my companion cube to fit the button. will post a pic when done.

Excellent! I've been meaning to try to make a button for my cubes :)

This did come out rather fragile, though, in particular the little rectangles coming off the ring and button. Do you think it would work if I printed the ring and base as a single (fused) part? Is there a reason for their separation other than the different coloring?

Fantastic!

I'll redesign it to fit a cherry switch for a nice long throw!

Very nice design. I might have to print off a cube to justify my printing one of these.
