A single gang lightswitch coverplate to use for when you paint the home, or are simply in need of a replacement for the old ones. You can simply use the screws from the old plate to affix the new one to your wall.
I suggest to print face upwards for best aesthetics. Use supports for the rear indentations. It should clear any screws and protrusions around the switch. Use ironing for a store-bought appearance.
PETG and ABS are materials of choice due to their good electrical insulative properties. PLA will bow inwards if the screws are torqued too tightly over a prolonged period. PETG has excellent flexibility and will return to original form when pressure is relieved.
