I am attempting to match the PDP-8 front panel switch colors using Vince's 3D model. I have been able to print them quite well (with typical 3d banding) on my Prusa MK3S+ with a .4mm nozzle. I have a 0.25mm nozzle i'm tempted to try using.
I am hoping to match the actual standard PDP-8/E (Not LAB-8/E or the Blue and Red PDP-8/E) colors.
I noticed on my front panel the deposit switch is a different color than the other yellow switches. Is this my bad eyes or is it like that on all yellow/orange 8/E's?
I don't want to wind up ordering 3 or 4 different colors of each switch until I find good matching colors. So do any of you know where I can get filaments that are a good color match to the actual PDP-8/E.
I am also going to try printing the switch on the resin printer at work just to see how it comes out.
If I can match the color closely enough I'm thinking of making sets of switches available at a reasonable price.
Thanks in advance,
Mike
