Ergodox EZ tent kit

thingiverse

This is a custom keyboard tent git for the ergodox ez keyboard. They sell a tent kit with the keyboard but I needed more angle with the keyboard so I designed this. It is based loosely on the Freestyle2 ascent keyboard tent kit but with changes to make the design more printer friendly. Print Settings Printer Brand: MakerBot Printer: MakerBot Replicator (5th Generation) Rafts: Yes Supports: No Resolution: .2 mm Notes: The base parts and stands can be printed in .3 mm but I kept having issues with the hinges when printing the keyboard mounts at the larger resolution. Post-Printing Keyboard moves/slides while typing I have had some issues with the tent kit sliding on my desk. I have a smooth surface on my desk and ended up putting double sided tape under the bottom plates to hold it in place better. It isn't a problem for me when I use an XTrackPad but YMMV depending on your desk surface. Hinge pieces don't fit I printed 2 sets of hinge pins (1.75mm and 1.25mm). It depends on what resolution you print your other parts and how well the prints turned out. I didn't have to file the hinges at all but I cut the extra length off the pins so they wouldn't stick out. It may also be good to put a dab of hot glue on the end to keep the pin in but I haven't had a problem yet.
