Switch Box

thingiverse

This is a 3 switch control box that features affordable single pole single throw micro switches, measuring 3.5mm by 7mm in size and requiring a momentary touch to function. This component provides left, right, and select input for a stepper motor controlled by an Arduino or Node MCU. Instructions on how to assemble the box can be found within the accompanying files. The wiring setup is not included in this description. A hole designed specifically for Ethernet cable (Cat 5, etc) accommodates four twisted pairs of 24 AWG wire. These wires are then soldered to the switches, which feature small metal tabs on either side that connect when the switch button is pressed. After completing the assembly, you will have one spare pair of wires remaining.
