This is originally designed for the Kinesis Freestyle Edge series, I believe it can fit any split keyboard.

This is  a fork recreation of Aaron Rappaport's Folding Tenting Feet from Thingiverse, admittedly made out of frustration.

They have stated that they had made updates to their model, however, they have also said that they will not be uploading said updates, leaving the model as the 11 degree lift. I did not have a good result in my end but that's due to my printer not having great calibration, however the lift also felt a tad short for me.

So instead of editing the leg piece, I decided to recreate the parts in openSCAD so that the parts can be customized as need be. It is far from perfect, but I tried to make it as straightforward as possible. If you find that your config is breaking things a bit (ie. Base too thick) feel free to edit the code. I did this a bit hastily, so there might be some rough edges here and there.

 

If this does not work out for you, I'd implore you to consider Kinesis Freestyle Pro Keyboard - Wrist Rest and Risers by zimboptoo, you can print doubles of the back Base and risers of choice, if you don't want the wrist rest.
