Title: Extending the ergodox tent kit..
Post by: darrenph1 on Thu, 20 July 2017, 13:51:40

The ergodox EZ tent kit doesn't tilt the keyboard high enough for my liking. Is there a way to extend the tilt kit? I was hoping to extend the legs and keep it cleaner looking that the foam I have currently under my razer orbweaver set up at a 45 degree angle. Also wondering about how some of you have tilted the wrist rests.

Thanks!

There's so many different varieties of the ErgoDox out there now, you'll have to give us a better idea of exactly what case and tent kit you're using.

I tented my original Massdrop ErgoDox using some M3 spacers I picked up off eBay.  Something along the lines of this:

Then just pick your length to adjust to the angle you want.  But depending on your case design, that may not work for you.

Sorry, the Ergodox EZ.
