Decora 4 on/off wall switch with LEDs by dbemowsk

This is a remix of the Decora Blank by Corona688. This is also alternate design remix of my other 8 button switch http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2136094 . The circuit board for this design will also work for the 8 button wall switch design.
This is a design for a decora style 4 button on/off rocker switch with indicator LEDs for each row of buttons. This is a project I have been working on for a MySensors switch controller. Other information as well as the prototpe of this (prior to the 3D printed version) can be seen at:https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/4317/us-decora-style-wall-switch/
The crossbar brace assembly for this model is used as a pivot for the rocker switches. The pivot is to prevent pressing both the on and the off buttons simultaneously. This is not a required piece for the switch to work, but it will give the switch a better feel.
The switch plate is designed to mount a 3cm x 7cm prototype or other circuit board similar to this:https://console5.com/store/perforated-board-3cm-x-7cm.html
The circuit board is mounted using 2mm x 5mm self tapping screws. The switches used are 6mm x 6mm tactile switches with a switch height of 4.3mm to 5mm:http://www.robotshop.com/en/sfe-mini-push-button-switch.html?gclid=CJyh2_fEq9ICFQEIaQodYO0LcA
The indicator LED holes are designed to hold any standard 3mm LED, though the hole size can be increased to fit larger LEDs if desired.
See my other switches I posted to get more information on the creation of these switches. You can also check out my blog post on my website that talks about how I created these. https://dan.bemowski.info/2017/06/11/my-start-into-open-source-hardware/
