Height extensions for KYZ HSW Display Stand - L

Introduction

Soon after the release of the KYZ HSW Display Stand, many requests were made for a height extension to increase the storage area. This adds two sizes of extensions:

• 7 hex extension for an 165mm height increase
• 9 hex extension for a 212mm height increase

Please common sense in designing your tool board or display - don't put heavy things right at the top. Another base such as this Gridfinity Base may be a good idea as it's larger and can be weighed down with Gridfinity units. This connector upgrade may be useful to significantly reduce the overall flexibility of the board.

Materials

• Any stiff material (PLA/ABS/PETG, etc)
• Whilst PLA will be fine for general indoor use, be wary of using PLA if this will be in a hot car, or in the sun on a warm day (especially if it's a dark colour)
• (The red one in the photos is made with ABS)

Print settings

Tested with a 0.4mm nozzle. With this:

• If PETG - use 4 perimeters
• If PLA/ABS/ASA/PETG-CF/etc. - use 3 perimeters
• 4 bottom layers and 5 top layers
• Infill of your choice
• Print outer walls slowly for a strong part with consistent gloss level
• If your printer has an auxiliary fan, turn this off - the layer times are already high to ensure each layer is cooled before the next layer, and there are very few overhangs to worry about
• The rest is up to you

General precautions apply for printing large parts - ensure your build plate is clean (wash with hot water and dish soap and dry with a clean towel), add mouse-ears and/or apply some glue in the corners if you often have adhesion issues.

Support

If you would like to say thanks, please post a make and share here and on socials. You could buy me a few metres of plastic on Ko-Fi otherwise, please post a make and check out my other HSW models in this collection. If you are using these stands as a part of your business and are finding it helpful, please consider buying this price label model to support more projects like this.

Remixes with significant changes are very welcome.
