The model

Gingerbread house: brown house shape, the roof carries a white icing band with drips and colorful candies, in the gable sit two yellow mullioned windows with snow on the sill, a heart and a peppermint spiral. Left and right of the switch stands a red-and-white candy cane with sugar pearls, at the bottom lie snowdrifts with gumdrops and two little fir trees, and snow lies on the chimney.

Snowman: the switch sits in the white belly. Above it the head with coal eyes, carrot nose and a tilted top hat, a red-and-white striped scarf whose end hangs down at the side, twig arms, one button above and one below the switch. The light blue background shows white snowflakes, and light blue flakes are inset in the white belly.

Both frames have a square cut-out of 81.5 × 81.5 mm for switch plates with an outer size of 80.5 × 80.5 mm, which is 0.5 mm of clearance per side. The back is completely flat and is stuck to the wall with adhesive pads (not included).

Built in height steps: base plate 2.0 mm, every further color 0.6 mm higher, 4.4 mm in total. With one nozzle you print the "komplett" file and change the filament at the four heights from farbwechsel.txt. For multicolor printers every color is included as its own file in the same coordinates.

Notes

  • The frames are only glued on the outside around the existing switch plate. Nothing is unscrewed and nothing is changed on the electrics. Before printing, measure the outer size of your own switch plate: it must be no more than 81 mm wide and high.
  • The files are for your private use – print them as often as you like. You may not pass on, upload or sell the files themselves.
