Door Bell with swappable lid

thingiverse

I printed a doorbell for our house with an interchangeable lid so you can quickly change the look on any special day of the year. Step files are included, allowing you to create your own custom lid for your home. BOM (Bill of Materials): 5x 3mm nuts, 5x 3x12mm screws with sinkhead, 2x 4mm hex screws, 4x 4mm nuts, 1x small insulating screw joint, 1x spring 15mm diameter, and wire. After printing, insert the nuts into the four corners of the base, then screw in the screws without the lid and point the nuts with super glue to secure them in place. It can be frustrating to notice that one nut has fallen out and the lid is already on top. To prepare the bell button, use a knife or another tool to remove the support material inside. Then, thread the wire through the hole (refer to pictures) and wind the unisolated portion around the 4mm hex screw two times should be enough). Next, screw on a nut tightly, then you can insert the screw into the button. I cut mine down to fit snugly within the button's bottom. Performing the same procedure for the other plate, insert the wire, wind it, and put it in the hole. Place the nut on the opposite side of the plate, cutting the screw down to reach the nut (refer to pictures). Cutting approximately 2cm off the spring, place it on the plate (see pictures). After securing the spring with a thin wire, insert the plate into the basehole and attach the button on top. Cut the fixing wire to complete the doorbell assembly. The button should now smoothly move up and down when pressed without any issues. Drill a 3mm hole in the center of the insulating screw joint to secure it onto the base plate. That's it!
