Wanhao Duplicator i3 "PANIC!" Stop Button

thingiverse

This thing serves as a straightforward panic button for the Wanhao Duplicator i3 and other variants. I personally own a Monoprice Maker Select v2.1, so your fitment may differ. It proves extremely helpful in halting a botched print without needing to locate something small and sharp to press the recessed microswitch on the panel or perform a hard shutdown with the main power switch located at the back of the printer. Keep in mind that it won't, however, interrupt "home all" or other manual head movements (at least on my printer). The "PANIC!" text and border are colored and raised using a permanent marker. A multihead printer could potentially print these elements separate from the background. The cylindrical actuator is printed next to the button for later attachment. I heated the end of it and attached it off-center so that the button was more centered on the control panel, as the hole on the panel isn't perfectly centered. The button remains in place with a loop of gaffers tape. If anyone wishes to remix it to include a hinge or something similar, that would be fantastic to see. Dimensions: The button is 25mm across and 4mm deep, with lettering and border 1mm high; the post diameter is 4mm and 10mm long.
