Happy Pi Button Switch Box

thingiverse

A quick build for two colorful round tactile button switches from Adafruit, product id 1009. I wanted a single physical button for turning both my Octopi and Ender on and off without just killing power to my pi. It now first runs a shutdown on my pi to prevent corruption. I could only figure a way to do it with it two buttons though, one for off, on gpio pin 26 with GPIO Shutdown, and the other for on, on gpio pin 3*. It's open in the back because it sits right against the printer. I shared the Tinkercad, it should be easy to re-edit for more buttons. Edit it online https://www.tinkercad.com/things/8ZPGq8W9Jbq The switch's model I found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:493721 The Ender is on a TP-link, controlled by the Pi with this plugin: https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/tplinksmartplug/ *Still have to disconnect power to ensure it doesn't turn back on because only a minor voltage shift will trip pin 3 to turn on power.
