Star Wars Light Switch Cover

UPDATE 05/06/2025: NEW version 2.0 of the Star Wars Light Switch Cover is now live! You can find it here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/1490381-star-wars-light-switch-cover-2-0#profileId-1557649

UPDATE 25/05/2025: As requested I have added a very simple assembly guide to the ‘Documentation’ section.

UPDATE 22/04/2025: Added a PDF to the ‘Documentation’ section with a small selection of screen decals that can be printed off using a traditional inkjet or laser printer. Print them on some thick paper or card and then using a sheet of clear acetate cut out a piece the same size as the image to add that reflective screen look.

UPDATE 07/01/2025: Added a ‘US Version’ of the Star Wars Light Switch Cover. Only two parts needed redesigning,the main body and the outer frame. Parts have been modified to fit the dimensions of a US light switch pictured in the image below. I obviously cannot test these modifications so any feedback from US members would be appreciated.

UPDATE 10/11/2024:

• Added a ‘mirrored’ version for light switch sockets that are located to the right of a door.
• Added a ‘vertical’ version that is more suitable for dimmer switches. Please note this version doesnt come with the battery compartment like the other versions. If you still want the ability to use LEDs then I would recommend using a ‘Twin Button Battery Holder’ with a 5v LED strip. Both can be found on Amazon or AliExpress. All other parts listed apply.

Introduction

Inspired by watching to many Star Wars movies I wanted to add a Star Wars themed wall panel to my room and after looking around the web the idea for a Star Wars Light Switch Cover was born!

Model Details

 Some parts need the use of an AMS but this can be adjusted in the slicer software if you don't have an AMS. Assembly is pretty straight forward using the one of the images provided as the ‘parts’ and ‘plates’ are labelled. Most components are a tight fit so the use of glue is optional.

I have also included 2x printed faux screens that slide in from the top of the screen section.I would recommend using a 0.2mm nozzle for best quality. I also cut out some clear acetate to give that reflective screen look

The whole model is attached to the wall using 4x 15mm x 4.5 mm magnets and some metal tape.

The Battery compartment that hangs down to the left is optional and only used to supply power to the LEDs that light up the screen.
