Loki inspired replacements for Schiit knob
Description
Printed the knobs with AnyCubic Translucent Green resin on an AnyCubic Photon Zero. Printed the contrast markers and toggle dagger with GST3D PLA+ on an Ender 3 V2. The Ender 3 V2 parts were printed at .6mm. So anything lower will make this look even better. You can duplicate the contrast markers to however many you need and then print with a skirt. The dagger, you should use build-plate touch supports. No skirt needed. The knobs can be printed in FDM either on their side or when the alignment in the STL is rotated 180 degrees top to bottom, but it looks kinda ugly. If you have a resin printer... use it! These can obviously be printed in any color combo you want - would be nice to see what "special editions" folks create. A few things on finishing these... I created a bunch of prototypes for the knobs and the current size printed as-is will be ever so slightly larger than it needs to be. This was done because I needed to offset the thickness of my clear coats to the knob themselves. Spraying on clear coats is how you get the glass look to translucent resins. IF you want them smokey then you should shrink the knob down .10mm. The contrast markers may need super glue depending on the tolerances of your printing. The dagger should just pop over the toggle. Be weary of the toggle on the Schiit Loki, it is spongy. You may want to twist it back and forth on instead of just a straight press. Note: I did not create a separate file for the volume pot. I just extended the length. Yes, this makes elements to the knob not circular. No, I don't care and neither does anyone else who has seen it. You shouldn't care, but if I get requests I'll redo it and add it in.
