Kanger™

I mean… who does not need more desk space? Ok, I know, tidy people. I hope to be one when I grow up. But for now, the Kanger™ has become one of my best friends.

The Kanger™ is a keyboard hanger which allows you to store your keyboard on the top back of your monitor to make more desk space. Totally designed out of need, I made this because my desk is just too cluttered and I was constantly looking for somewhere to put my keyboard.

I have not tried it on so many monitors to know it will fit all but I believe it will fit most. The top hook component has a depth of 25mm so as long as the top of your monitor is not more than that it should rest on your monitor well.

While the Kanger™ folds up and can be put away when not needed it really can just stay on your monitor so that it is there when you want to put your keyboard somewhere.

I have listed this as a product on my bukudesign.com site and as such I have an instructional graphic made which I will include here…

Printing

This is a one-piece print-in-place design with no support required. I am using a 0.4 nozzle with the line set to 0.45mm. With these settings, the detents and hinges print well. If you find them too loose try matching these settings. And please give me feedback if you have any.

Material: I choose to use PETG for its durability and flexibility.

My Setup:
Nozzle = 0.4mm

My Settings:
Layer height = 0.2mm
Line width = 0.45mm
Wall count = 4 (1.6mm)
Infill = 40%
Support = Designed to print without supports.

Print Orientation: As shown in the screenshot.

Where to Get My STL Files

Thangs.com

I am now posting all of my new designs on Thangs.com and plan to continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Some of my older designs may not have been migrated over yet so if they are not available on Thangs.com please check on Thingiverse.

Use, Licensing, Comments and Feedback

My primary distribution site for my design files is Thangs.com. Thangs.com is, in my opinion, leading the way in promoting designers and competition amongst designers which in turn fuels the growth of high-quality 3d printable designs for the benefit of our entire community. However, as a result, some of my designs are only available for free for 1 week from when first posted, so please download them when you see a new file available that you are interested in. Also, please like and save to help me with the competitions.

I do not permit the use of my designs for commercial purposes (i.e. you can not sell my design(s) or products printed from my design(s)) without first acquiring a commercial license from me. On Thangs.com I offer membership accounts for access to all my design files as well as a membership for commercial licensing which allows subscribers to sell printed products using my designs.

I welcome comments and feedback as we as requests for customization of designs. I will do my best to accommodate those requests.
