There is an error in the bottom part of the face plate ( at least in mine). The 5 selector switch does not fit. The position is different. It there an update ? Else i will modify it myself if possible. Mike That was fixed in the latest version, apparently you have the previous one. You need to fix it by bending a bit or cutting. Is it the face plate that is the old one or the PCB? I can reprint the faceplate if there is a new version around. |

I can reprint the faceplate if there is a new version around. Sorry i was talking about the PCB, because in the previous version of the PCB the holes of the switch were not placed correctly and that was fixed in the latest PCB. But i don't know about the faceplate having an issue, feel free to modify as you need. |

If you have tinkercad and know how to use it, i can share the faceplate and make it public so you can modify as you wish.

You have the correct one. The only thing is that while designing the PCB, I was thinking about soldering everything not so close to the PCB (leave them longer) so the faceplate would come right above the switch. That's the reason why i used the pins for the displays and didn't solder them directly, same with the switches which could be extended a bit with wires and also the leds.At that time (maybe even now) I couldn't find the perfect switch in shape and size. In this case maybe the better option would be to use some other thinner switch and adapt (maybe fix it to the faceplate and not solder it directly on the board but use some wires). It has been a while since I last worked on the PCB and to be honest i don't even know if I still have the latest files (project files to work on).

The hole of the selection switch on the faceplate should be more to right and up position to align with the PCB, there where I drawed the red circle. Attachments:

We will rework where possible. 5Step switches are all very high lets see how things work out, ill grab the stl files

If you have tinkercad and know how to use it, i can share the faceplate and make it public so you can modify as you wish. Yes please, then I can try to import the thinkercad files into my drawing package to fix it for you. |

Bosal, can you make the mod's? if not there will be two people working on the same. If you are making the mods. remember that the text needs to move also, there is text at the 5 position switch at the moment. Raising it 150% in the Z axis makes it printable and paintable. |

Will see if I can import the files in my drawing software. When AlbEagle shares the link I'll check it out. |

Thanks AlbEagle, unfortunately the file format is STL or OBJ. I can't import&convert these files as "body" within my drawing software. Makes it difficult for a quick edit.  |

The v2 PCB and the faceplate.stl file on thingiverse dated 11/7/2020 do not line up with the 5 selector switch. Moving the hole up @ 45degree 3.5mm will do the job. Larry |
