Mercutio Keyboard Case

thingiverse

This is a 7 degrees keyboard case I've made for Mercutio, a 40% keyboard designed by MechWild. Printing: (Do not glue any parts together prior to assembly) -- Print both halves for the top and bottom case. -- For the bottom halves, place the pieces so that the MechWild logo is pointing UP -- For the top halves, make sure the side with chamfered edges is pointing UP -- If you would like to merge the top piece, you will likely need to extend it by 0.5mm. (Thanks you Jonavin#8272 for testing it out) -- During testing, the width of the top part needed to be 0.5 mm narrower than the bottom part for my case to fit flush. As a result, the top left part of the case will be narrower than the other parts. I have also included a version (wide_top left.stl) with the same width as others in case it is needed. I have put pictures at the bottom of the description with the piece aligned to the left to illustrate the difference between the two top left files. Assembly: (The case is a snug fit after assembly. To remove the keyboard from the case you will need to push it out from the bottom screw holes with a small screwdriver or something similar with a diameter of less than 2mm.) -- Assemble the keyboard except the 4 corner screws on the bottom. -- Secure the bottom halves of the case with the corner screws on the bottom. -- After ensuring the bottom pieces fits, glue the bottom pieces together. Do not glue the top halves yet. (I have use Mr.Cement S for mines, but use appropriate adhesive regarding to your print material) -- Slide the top pieces on from the sides. Make sure to press it in on either side to ensure a snug fit while being flush to the bottom case. -- Hold the pieces firmly in place, then glue the top halves to the bottom and each other. -- Attach the rubber feet onto the grooves on the bottom. I have included a .dxf file if you would like to make modifications. Enjoy! **Use the files at your own risk and I hold no liability to any potential loss caused
