Summary

A very simple solution to an age-old problem for the contemporary nomadic lifestyle. Combining my iPad bracket (or any tablet really) with my keyboard simplifies packing my backpack enormously.

It works as a stand-alone holder but if you want to keep it clipped to your keyboard (for tight situations like economy class airplane seats), you should also print off two of these to keep the keyboard stable (and protect it from turning on in your bag):

Print without support and trim away the skirt once done. If you prefer a raft, I have included the non-skirt versions for you too.

Here's a quick demo of the item on Youtube:

May 11, 2016 update: Did a slight mod to the backer such that it's impossible to slide all the way through the footer, making it hard to get out again. Kinda annoying, but it should all be good now. Let me know if there are any other issues. Thanks!
