A couple of days ago, the dishwasher handle switch gave up again - Sugru wasn't rigid enough to hold its shape under regular compression and friction. So I measured out the critical dimensions, designed and printed off an insert to address the worn-down nubs.
Of course, once that was addressed the electronics died completely! They were already only half-working, but the previously-glitchy switches were probably what killed them in the end.
Replacement board(s) ordered. Once those arrive though, I think I'll reverse engineer the broken board and open source the results. Who knows what may result? ;-)

ironically i didn't read his sign till i got home and reviewed my days shooting. I was actually looking for a burrito place at the time.
damn i love burritos!
As you can see in a previous shot I screwed up and soldered the wires from the rca plugs directly to the switch before installing them in the holes, so I had to cut the wires, screw the rca plugs in and then solder the cut wires back together. Hence all that crazy heat shrink tube mess :)
Abandoned steel mill switcher at the former Wheeling Steel Plant/Complex in Benwood, WV. Having seen it's better days the yard switcher is slowly rusting away on a rail spur. Mill closed in the late 1970's. Photograph taken September 2011.
