I wanted a cover for my 8BitDo Keyboard to keep out the dust and never ending cat hair. 

It is designed to be printed in two pieces. I added 1.2mm holes at the edges to allow the two pieces to be connected together using .041" stainless steel lock wire (I purchased a one pound coil at Harbor Freight for $9 in the US.)  It is not necessary to connect the two pieces together to use it. 

Link to the Lock Wire I used.

I also uploaded the full size cover for people who have a large enough print bed to print the whole thing in one piece. 

The cover will sit into the grove around the perimeter of the keys to hold it in place. 

If you would prefer to not have the 8BitDo logo, you can print two of the “No Logo” file, as they are the same.

It is designed to be printed without supports, but it is prone to warping because of the large flat surface area. You may need to add a brim if you have issues with warping. 

I printed mine in PLA at .2mm height with only 5% infill.
