Edited: Made countersunk mounting holes slightly larger. 2 printed examples, 1 with a green background & gold traces and the second one with a red background & bronze colored traces. I painted the mounting screws red to match just to show what can be done to enhance these. With inspiration gained from mcavoya's PCB Light Switch Cover, thing:5584119, I decided to take it a bit differently. Whereas he had the PC board traces indented on the face of the plate so it could be printed face down with no supports, I elected to go the other direction and have the PC traces extruded a bit and made the underside cavity for the light switch just large enough to clear the switch. That way I could use "Tree Supports" in my Cura slicer but not have them so numerous that they became a pain to remove. The results turned out reasonable I printed it with a green background and gold traces to sort of mimic a normal printed circuit board with plated traces and green solder masked ground plane (background). It came out tolerable but not perfect as you can see in the photograph. It is, however, usable.
