Clean/Dirty sign for dishwasher - dual (or single) extruder print

thingiverse

This is dual or single extruder print (2 color) design for a dishwasher clean/dirty indicator. DUAL EXTRUDER INSTRUCTIONS: The base .stl files (clean_dirty_210702p_black.stl and clean_dirty_210702p_white.stl) are for a 2 color dual extruder print 3D printer. - I used a MakerGear M3-ID to print this part. The slider file (clean_dirty_210702p_slider_X101.92.stl) can be used with a single extruder printer. - I used a MakerGear M2 to print this part File, clean_dirty_210702p_slider.stl, was the original size. However, it tended to jam. Use this slider file only if (clean_dirty_210702p_slider_X101.92.stl) won't slide. SINGLE EXTRUDER INSTRUCTIONS: Print the following files: letters: clean_dirty_dual_or_single_210803c_white_single_extruder.stl - these letters provide a 0.25 mm gap to allow them to be easily inserted into the base base: clean_dirty_210702p_black.stl slider: clean_dirty_210702p_slider.stl glue the letters into the base CREDITS: This design was inspired by Dishwasher Clean/Dirty Sign, by alexberkowitz August 21, 2017 but does not use any of his files.https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2494096 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: Based on erinsugars comment, I have added the following instructions: The design is intended to be difficult for the slider to fall out in use. Unfortunately this can make it difficult to insert it into the base. I installed the slider as follows: - position the slider in the middle of the base with one edge inserted in the bottom groove. - insert a flat screwdriver between the top of the slider and the top groove - apply just enough force to the screwdriver to allow the points on the slider to slide into the base if the slider (clean_dirty_210702p_slider_X101.92.stl) is difficult to slide then print the slider clean_dirty_210702p_slider.stl
