I was going to say the same thing as Trey, above.
Ponoko is a great service, and there’s already some industry success stories of how Ponoko products end up on some pretty high profile shelves…

So in an attempt to stop children playing with plug sockets, lets create one that looks like a toy…

Except it’s not a plug socket.
It’s a light switch.
