A while ago, I lost the ESC key on my Logitech K400+ keyboard. Inspired by the other models for K400 and K400+ keys here on Thingiverse, I decided to have a go at modeling and printing the key that I was missing.
If printed correctly, these keys snap easily, fit perfectly, and are fully functional!
I recommend printing using yellow PLA to match the keyboard's color theme ;)
I included the Fusion 360 model file for convenience.
Printer Brand:
Creality
Printer:
CR-10
Rafts:
No
Supports:
No
Resolution:
0.1 mm
Infill:
100%
Filament: Hatchbox PLA Yellow
Notes:
Print upside down: with the text side facing downward (printer bed), and the snap-fit joint facing upward.
Use your printer's highest resolution to ensure that the snap mechanism does not fuse with any of the surrounding surfaces.Do not use any supports and make sure to print with 100% infill.
I used a caliper to accurately model the "Delete" key on Fusion 360, and then I mirrored the part to generate the "Escape" key.
Fortunately, my initial assumption that both keys are exact mirrors of each other turned out to be correct!
