A few years ago, Devon welded me a steampunk light switch for my studio. It was a sweet Mother’s Day present, but sadly, it kept falling apart. I didn’t want this well-intentioned gift to become a lifelong emotional burden for him, so I finally forced him to give up on it.
Or so I thought.
Apparently, he held on to that failure for years, because he surprised me recently with this 3D-printed version. He’s put more skill points into 3D printing than welding, and this one is solid.
Get the free design from 3dprintingworld. They paint it with iron paint, but Devon opted to print this light switch with iron-infused filament and rust it with hydrogen peroxide, salt and vinegar. Find the technique at Protopasta.
Now maybe he can find some peace.
