Update 10/2023: I have since made a complete case with a nicer tenting solution. If you don't just want a quick and dirty hack I'd recommend checking that out instead.

I recently printed effae's Sofle V2 case but wanted a tenting solution. These legs give the case a 21.5 degree angle and have a nice wide base to securely glue them on. They are designed to fit between the screw by the thumb buttons and the inward edge for maximum stability. Adhesive rubber feet recommended.

Also included is a little wedge that has the same angle as the legs. It is made to be glued on at the outside edge to make a level surface for more rubber feet (see photos)

This addon for effae's case is inspired by the legs on this case for the lily58, but I didn't have any magnets lying around so I made them glue-on. If anyone wants to remix them to accommodate magnets feel free, there's an onshape link with the model.

Printing notes

The wedge especially is designed around a 0.2mm layer height with an extra 0.2mm on the bottom so the edge isn't one layer thin, but otherwise print settings shouldn't matter too much. 10% infill worked well but you could probably go lower.
