Description
I have this Keychron Silicone Palm Rest for my Keychron Q1 Max
From my experience the palm rest is too low and is not as ergonomic as I would like, it requires an 'extension' of the wrist (upwards bending) when typing.
This base raises the palm rest slightly higher, it slots into the hexagonal recesses underneath the palm rest holding it in place.
Hexagon mates with hexagonal recesses on underside of palm rest | |
Chamfer on lower edge to give floating look (removed on 'Easy' version) |
This is to fit the Keycrhon Silicone Palm Rest listed for the following models:
V1 / V1 Max / V2 / V2 Max / Q9 / Q1 / Q1 Pro / Q1 HE / Q1 Max / Q2 / Q2 Pro / Q2 Max / Q2 HE / P1 / P1 Pro / P1 HE / L5 HE / X4 / X6 / PR47
The original model I made was not made to be easily printed and requires supports, I made a second 'easy' version that is not concave so can be printed with the hexagons on top.
Original Version | Supportless 'Easy' version |
|---|---|
You will need to print two, the model covers half of the keyboard. This was to avoid having a large long flat print.
