Retrokits RK008 Case & Stand

This stand/case is for the Retrokits RK008, which is a small, lightweight MIDI sequencer. It's so light, that it was easy for it to fall off my miniKorg 700fs, and I wanted to keep it safe for travel, hence this little project. 

The RK008 lightly snaps into the base, which keeps it sufficiently secure:

The lid just snaps on top, protecting the buttons from being pressed (and accidentally turning the unit on). The stylish logo lets people know you're rockin' Retrokits:

Although it was meant to sit on the miniKorg 700fs, it will also work well on any flat metal surface really, increasing the angle of the keypad to 20 degrees (which matches the Moog Minitaur). The magnets on the bottom are 8mm X 3mm from Amazon (but could be replaced with rubber feet if desired). The magnets just press fit into the cylindrical openings.

There is an opening in right side of the lid to line up with the USB-C port, so it can be charged when stored:

For my prints, I used PETG, because I wanted some flexibility to the latch mechanism and resistance against higher temps, in case this was left in the car on a hot day. I used 0.2mm layer height and went slow/steady on my prints for the highest quality. The only supports required on the base were for the horizontal surfaces under the magnets, miniKorg rail and latch catches:

For the lid, the only supports needed were for the front edge, inside sloping edges, USB port opening, and latches:

The debossed letters did not need supports, as just bridging across worked fine.

Overall, I think this stand/case work great and provide sufficient protection to the Retrokits RK008 to throw into a bag with cords and not worry one bit. Enjoy!
