Folding Tenting Feet -Kinesis Freestyle Edge

thingiverse

### Update, 26th June 2020 I recently added a third foot at 5 degrees. To see the two-foot version, check out this link: https://photos.app.goo.gl/jnHCfMu3ijxZsUG38. I've also designed a wrist rest that adjusts to angles of 5, 10, and 15 degrees, inspired by the Kinesis Edge style. Currently, my progress is hindered because nothing seems to stick to the build plate and I'm dealing with my regular jobs. ### Update, 25th June 2020 I'm in the middle of creating a completely new revision. It features two angles (10 and 15 degrees), locking mechanisms to prevent wobbling, and follows the shape of the Kinesis Edge. This version will be more versatile than the original due to its adjustable angles. I've finished making it but need some fine-tuning and I'm waiting for black and grey filaments to arrive. ### Original Post: I created folding tenting feet for my Kinesis Edge Freestyle keyboard. My goal was to make foldable feet because sometimes I prefer to lay my keyboard flat, remove the wrist rest, and use a compact keyboard layout. I don't understand why they didn't include small feet in the design from the start. It seems like the lifting kit was added as an afterthought. My solution is straightforward – standard keyboard feet. I used double-sided tape and packing foam to attach it securely to the board and provide grip. When folded, it's only 5mm tall, making them nearly invisible. These feet can also be used with other ergonomic keyboards and raise the Kinesis Edge by 11 degrees. I've been using it with a wrist rest and it feels sturdy enough for now. However, I might go back and add some support for the wrist rest in the future. I printed at low resolution (0.25mm) and it turned out fine. I left plenty of room and the low resolution actually helps it "lock" into each spot without being loose. I recommend choosing a different color scheme.
