The Framework 16 is a really nice Laptop, but trying to put the laptop on your lap will bring tears to your eyes.

The Framework 16 is an awesome laptop, but you can clearly see that the creators are still new to the Laptop Design Business. For some inexplicable reason, the laptop has a very hard and sharp edge underneath the bottom that makes it very unenjoyable to actually put the laptop on your lap.

 

This small piece allows you to take the edge of the edge and make working on your lap a much more pleasant experience.

 

The part is designed with tight tolerances so you should be able to push it on and have it stay in place without glue or tape. It is measured precisely to not obstruct the fan openings for optimal cooling.

It adds a modest 3.3mm to the standing height of the laptop.

 

Print the parts as shown in the fourth image so you don't have to  use any support. 
I suggest printing the part in PETG or ABS/ASA. PLA might become soft if the Laptop runs under load.

 

Due to the tolerances, I suggest you have a printer that's dialled in pretty good.

 

As with all my models, source file included!
