This is a keyboard tray for the DOIO Megalodon 30% macro pad (This beastie)

The macro pad bottom is clear acrylic to display the embedded LEDs within. This tray is ideally meant to be printed using translucent PETG, and the settings in the 3mf file should reflect this.
The indents on the front of the tray are designed to hold 10mmx2mm magnets, and there are indents on the bottom for non-slip feet or a stacking system (that I've yet to devise).

My plan is to place the macro pad behind my main keyboard, and raise it up so that it matches the height and key angle of the keyboard.
The picture of the printed piece (in black PLA) is a previous prototype, which doesn't feature the magnet or feet indents, and the USB cutaways are slightly misplaced (fixed in the provided model files)

Edit: New Pictures show the fit and the LEDs shining through the PETG version. Please excuse the dust on the keyboard!

After printing in clear translucent PETG, I think it's come out pretty well

I used the following settings for the print:

Quality:
Layer Height (all layers): 0.1mm
Line width: 0.42mm on all layers (The guide says 0.5, but I needed 0.42 to keep the backing for the magnets intact)

Strength:
Wall loops: 1
Top shell layers: 0
Bottom shell layers: 0
Sparse infill density: The guide says 100%, I used 95% and used “Aligned Rectilinear” pattern

Speed: Set all the speeds to 20mm/s, except travel speed, which you can leave at 500mm/s

Make the following alterations to the filament:

Flow Ratio: 1.1
Turn the min and max fan rates to 0 in the cooling tab

All this info for PETG translucent printing came from the Bambu Lab guide

Note: It will take a long time to print like this. Mine came out at 22 hours 18 minutes
