Half Shelf for Keyway DB-17 Display Case

thingiverse

The Keyway DB-17 cases (Container Store) are great for displaying mini-figs, but if you want to display something larger along with the mini-figs it is difficult. This half shelf gives you more display flexibility by allowing you to tier half of the case. Unfortunately the retaining pins are directional, so you may have to snap off or trim one of the pins depending on if you use the shelf on the left or the right. I had cracking printing this in ABS, will try again in PLA. I will post a picture of just the shelf once I get a nice print. Since it is covered by the mini-figs, I went ahead and used the cracked version in the picture above. The WIP is at https://tinkercad.com/things/f870UNeyajY Instructions This was printed in ABS, but I suspect PLA will be better. I will try to make a thicker walled version for ABS. Slic3r had a problem with the thin wall and made the external wall only two perimeter thick. Sadly the pins and holes for the shelves have an orientation, so if you insert the pins into the hole it will be slightly out of alignment. You can snap off one of the pins if this is an issue. I will see if I can put pins on both sides, so you merely snap off the pins on the side you don't need.
