#Machineree Paddle Switch

This paddle switch is a simple addition to any regular toggle light switch and provides mechanical advantage and easy access to otherwise small switches located on machines. Users can buy a common single or double pole switch at the hardware store for a few dollars along with some bolts and have a working paddle switch in minutes! The design allows the user to 3D print or CNC (or export to 2D for templates) linkages to fit their needs and have a simple paddle switch that turns the machine on and off. NOTE: the switch is installed upside down! Make note of this on the machine when installing and make sure all power is unplugged! Before testing, your switch should be in the "UP" position as off.
