Ormerod reset button pusher

I finally got fed up with having the back off the Duet box and groping around to find the Erase and Reset buttons. Seeing that the back cover for the Duet box already has holes to access the buttons, but that putting anything metal in them is liable to fry the Duet, I designed and printed a button pusher. You can find it here [github.com].

Due to similar frustrations, I hooked up a separate reset button (some random switch I had laying around). Though with something like this for the erase button, I might actually bother finally putting the Duet cover on...

Thank god I have a 3D-printer or I would never be able to print out so many spare parts for it.

That's rather along the same lines as the person who commented at the scene of an aircraft crash, "It's a good thing the fuel tanks were empty, otherwise there may have been a big fire."

I think I so far have about a 2:1 ratio of "printing 3d-printer parts" vs "printing other stuff".

My ratio is 4:1 in calibration printouts vs useful stuff.
