SKYWAY 96 — Custom Parametric Case (96% Hotswap)

Description

A low-profile tray case for the SKYWAY 96 (96% /Melody96-footprint) keyboard PCB, designed parametrically inCadQuery and fitted to the board's exact outline, USB-C position,and mounting holes — measured straight from the gerbers, noteyeballed.The PCB is held three ways for a rock-solid, no-flex feel: acontinuous perimeter support ledge, 15 M2 standoff posts (at theboard's real mount holes + edge notches), and a thin top clamplip. Ledge and posts are coplanar so the board beds flat andcan't rock or bounce when you bottom out keys. M2 heat-setinserts recommended; self-tapping option included in the source.Print it one-piece if you have a 350 mm+ bed, or as twolap-dovetailed left/right halves that fit any 220 mm bed and gluetogether at the seam (the dovetails self-align the bottom whilethe glue sets). Optional 6° tilt feet slide into dovetailchannels in the underside for a proper typing angle.Everything is parametric — wall thickness, post style, tiltangle, USB position, even optional bezel/accent-stripe flair areall toggles in skyway_case.py. Source, STLs, and a printabilitypre-flight script are on GitHub.Print SettingsMaterial: PLA or PETG (PETG in an enclosure for the long parts)Layer height: 0.2 mmWalls: 3–4Infill: 15% gyroidSupports: none (all overhangs self-bridge)Adhesion: brim (long flat parts are warp-prone)Tip: enable ~0.15 mm first-layer/elephant-foot compensation fora clean dovetail fitFeet: print ×2, on the sloped facePost-Printing / AssemblyHeat-set 15× M2 inserts…
