One day, I’m going to actually start a project I’ve long wanted to do: tear apart the control board for one of the bidets and re-wire it up to a board with three shells.
It’s not a complex project, but I want to make it look nice, and I always get stuck in planning; I need to either invest in a 3D printer, find a local maker space, or spend time online finding a printing service. And before all that, I need to learn enough about designing for a printer … it’s at this point in the thought process I get sidetracked by other things, and never get started.
But… someday. Someday, I’ll have three shells that actually control the toilet.
Side note: there are far more than three controls on the bidet remote, and even programming a multi-sequence control, it’d be difficult to get all of the functionality behind just three buttons. If each shell were a 4-way toggle, it might work, but it’d be a terrible user interface having to memorize all the combinations.

Yeah but the overly complex one would be perfect for publicly exclaiming how bad someone is at using the three seashells
What if the shells were on something like a joystick, such that left-right could be one scale and up-down could be another?
Or maybe sliders in the grooves of the shell?
I love your project and hope it comes to fruition. Best of luck.
