Need to raise sides of split keyboard by 1 inch

[berserkfan]

I am now using a split layout keyboard. I am enjoying myself but have felt that things would be better if I could tilt the keyboards at least 30 degrees. Prototyping with styrofoam, I conclude that I need to raise the inner sides by at least an inch. So now my keyboards are now resting on styrofoam.

Looking at 3M's catalogue, I found that there are no hemispheric bumpons more than 0.4" in height. I checked other websites under bumper and didn't find anything that can help me raise by one inch relatively painlessly.

Should I be doing machining to make these legs or tilt supports for the keyboard? Could anyone give some suggestions how to construct permanent supports for my split layout keyboard? I would prefer to work with wood since it's so much easier to cut and sand.

I also welcome suggestions for attaching styrofoam legs more securely. Double sided tape is not working because I can't cut the styroform accurately enough.

You can cut plastic boxes; I believe I've seen that somewhere… perhaps plainbriny's ErgoDox? Wood is another option.
You can 3D print a stand; it's been done for the ErgoDox.
You can simply buy Kinesis V3.

Thanks for the inspiration.

Plainbriny's work is here: https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=55043.0

The thumb cluster is exactly how I feel ergodoxes should be like - with thumbs much closer.

Have yet to decide what to do about the tenting for my keyboard. Styrofoam is actually great (no movement and total sound insulation) except when I have to move the keyboard. Gotta find some way to attach the styroform more securely.
