Maschine MK3 leg stands

thingiverse

The Maschine MK3 is a very versatile music creation and beats box. In operation, I found I preferred it tilted up for easier use on my desktop (and to reduce annoying reflections from the adjacent window). Unfortunately, the supplier (Native Instruments) no longer sells the custom stand. A bit of research showed that lots of folk are using laptop stands, but none of these met my needs or were way over my budget. I designed this leg (two require to be printed) to achieve a lift of 30mm at the rear. (I also made some at 60mm but found this to be too high for me). In practice, this design works well and is now a permanent feature for my music production setup. The rectangular slots on top are designed to accept the rubber feet at the rear of the case. This, together with the sloping front and rear faces of the leg, produces an arrangement that is quite stable - even if you are tempted to be a bit enthusiastic in your drumming style!
