TBM 900 ECS Panel

This is a pretty accurate model of a TBM 900 ECS Panel. It is inspired by the work by FlightSimMaker’s TBM Deice Panel available at Thingiverse https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4625864

The design consist of a bottom plate and a face plate. Text and symbols are raised on the faceplate. The panel is, not yet, prepared for backlightning

It can be printed in all white and painted black. By carfully sanding the top one can get the white text and symbols to appear. An alternative way is to print it black and perform a filament color change on the top layers for the text to white. Below is a picture of a build panel using the later technique. It was printed on a Prusa Mini with a 0.2 nozzle.

Build with filament change.

A third option is to print it all black and carefully painting the raised text white. Build with raised text painted white.
