People keep talking about sanding the printed object,

results are obtained by polishing with a very small amount of acetone.
Good idea.
The point is not whether you sand or treat with acetone, the point is
that just because it doesn't come out of the printer "perfect" doesn't
mean that's the end of the story of making a replica toggle switch.
I love how I simply suggested that you contact pocket factory if you
want to try out this process and everyone who's never used one of
these printers comes out of the woodwork and starts whining about how
it will never work.
I guess they'd rather bitch about how there's no supply of toggle
switches and they'll never get replacement switches for their
PDP-11/PDP-8 front panels.
WAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
