Summary

This is a small up-stand foldable leg for a Keychron K8 keyboard (it may fit other Keychron models, I'm not sure). It's the small leg that fits inside the bigger one. I made this because I couldn't find any equivalent parts- I could only find the bigger leg part that it sits in like this one.

There's a rectangular cut out in the area where the leg meets the desk surface so you can put something grippy in there - I haven't worked out what that would be at time of publishing so feel free to share your ideas in the comments.

I printed this on my Ender-3 V3 - but there's no V3 model in the printer model list (only V3 KE and V3 SE!) I set the resolution to 0.1mm but my nozzle is 0.4mm so I guess the result could be better if you have the right setup.

> Choose which way up you want to print it as there's a tradeoff. Print with the concave section facing down and it may need support and or that surface will not finish as well as the top surface but the semi-round cutout will finish better. Otherwise you can print with the concave surface facing up and no supports will be needed but the semi-round cutout (the dimple that's supposed to help with the leg snapping into a closed position) will not be produced as well as it could due to the small scale of the piece.

I printed it concave face down and accept the ropey finish - I can't see it under my keyboard anyway!
