I would love to print this case for my Sofle v2 keyboard. Since I don’t own a 3D printer (… yet) I would like to do this by using an online printing service like PCBWay. Before I order, I do have some questions, since I have never printed anything.

  • What percentage of infill do you folks suggest? I was thinking 100% would be most stable.
  • Would PLA be a good material? I was thinking on filling and sanding it.
  • the project only has the parts for one side. Is there an easy way to mirror everything ?
  • Do you guys know a good printing service in Tokyo?

If this is the wrong community please feel free to delete this post.

I’ll bet you whatever the yen equivalent of a nickel is you can find some like-minded nerd in Tokyo who’d print this for you. Not necessarily a commercial service. Ask around local/Japanese language hangouts for 3D printing enthusiasts and you’ll probably find someone willing to do it.
