Description
Folding foot for a Dell SK-8135 multimedia keyboard. Useful after BSOD induced rage.
I am aware that others have designed keyboard feet before, however the first thing that I will try to print I wanted to design from scratch.
Overall size is 23x24x6mm including pivots.

Instructions
Designed in mm. (All measurements within 1 furlong.) 0.6mm wall under the pivots that hopefully will aid printing. Remove them after printing of course.
My first design for my Cupcake, and I haven't printed anything on it yet - including this, so ye takes yer chances. I have left this as a work in progress until I manage to print it.
Update: Not too bad as my first print! The centre spine did not build due to being too thin, but it is fine without it. If you want that please say so and I will update the STL. It is a bit messy on a Cupcake, but easy to trim up and make usable. It took 8 mintues to build with a raft.

I made one for my razer lycosa leyboard (http://www.thingiverse.com/thi...
I had to make a wall under the pivots too and then dremel them off to make them fit, they're still a little tight in the keyboard but they work. The makerbot recreates dimensions pretty accurately. Having a 3D printer at home is wonderful for stuff like this

Sooooooo many of these are missing at my school. Excellent design, as soon as I get my ABP working, I'll start cranking them out.


Nice reverse-engineering work. Printed on a BFB 3D Touch in a cool blue translucent PLA and it works like a charm. Just fixed 2 keyboards at the office 8-)
