Kossel Control Box

This is a replacement screen case for the Anycubic Kossel, I designed this to house buttons to control the lights I added.
When designing it I took inspiration from the Prusa control box and added in a kill switch, it works perfectly.
The front panel has 3 cut outs for these light up pushbuttons I found on amazon, they are a little small but they look amazing, especially at night.
Each button controls one corner, I wanted this functionally so I don't get a blinding glare on my webcam but still wanted to be able to light the whole thing up when I was calibrating (and it just looks awesome with all 3 turned on)
It fantastic when printing lithophanes, as you can set the light to only be behind the object.
You can find the buttons here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07QGBJ2X3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
On the side of the box I added a master switch so I can turn off all 3 lights at once, this isn't essential but its a nice and useful addition.

I printed this using a 0.2 layer height and had supports turned on for the interior of the model. This worked great for me but you might have better methods which I would love to hear!
