Emergency Button
This is some big Emergency Button. I use it with my HouseAutomation to control things and stuff.
As button itself i use a black Cherry MX switch that i had laying around. Works nice :)
When it was printed i thought a lower height would be great, so i added a 15mm/piece version. The version in the video is 30mm/piece.
What you need to do it like me:
all three printed parts
Cherry MX switch of your choice (i got mine from Conrad Germany
Arduino
NRF24L01+ Radio
some cables
some M3 Screws (M3x30+ should do fine)
You can read more about that stuff here:
Software i use pimatic.org
Hardware i use mysensors.org

I stole the idea for fixing the knob to the switch from ohagel. Thanks buddy, mine creation did not work as expected ;)
Update v2
I changed the plate thickness of the top part from 1mm to 1.5mm, that should make the Cherry Switch fit much better.
Update v3
I think using one cherry switch is great. But using 4 cherry switches is even four times greater. So i added a top and a knob that can handle 4 cherry switches. I made one, and it feels very good. Sadly yellow is empty, so mine is gray.
Update v4
Added CAD files. Please be nice, i am not that good at it.
