Specifically this was designed to used with the model on makerworld here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2628591-improved-jsaux-adapter-for-msi-claw-sillicone-case (also by me but it's a remix of a model only found on makerworld so I can't put it on here as well).

In combination with that model it allows a magsafe compatible metal ring to be installed to an MSI Claw with one of those generic silicone cases installed. No reason why it can be used with anything else using the same JSAUX mount, but it's deliberately slightly offset so as not to interfere with the cases integrated kickstand. It should work with any metal ring up to 59mm which was the largest sized one I had lying around the house.

I made this because whilst the integrated kick stand is better than nothing, it's only slightly better than nothing, and I have a bunch of decent magsafe compatible stands sitting around so figured might as well use one of those instead. It'll obviously hold anything else designed to be used with magsafe though, like hard drives or battery packs, and the setup supports the Claws weight with no issue, so should hold those fine too.

This comes thanks to SkTx's fine work (because I'm not that talented), pre-supported, so you just need to print, then snap the supports off. I recommend PLA for this because it's strong enough for this use case, making the hassle of ABS/ASA unnecessary, and won't have the potential issues PETG might have with the ring sticking to it.

I made sure there was an air gap between the vent holes and the plate, so whilst it might slightly impact heat dissipation through the vents it overlaps, it shouldn't do so to any noticeable degree. Not that I've noticed anyway, but of course YMMV. 

Anyway have fun trying to stick the most random magsafe compatible accessory to the back of your claw because now you can :D
