Description

I purchased a Modern Morse Nameless key from @aaronmakeskeys on Instagram and it's a spectacular key. It came with a foam-lined metal tin case for it, but it was rather large. I like to operate CW portably, so size and weight are factors, which motivated my design of a low-profile protective case for this great key.

 

This is one of the first designs I've ever made so, it isn't fancy and sleek, but it's functional. The key sits in the case without much rattling around, but it isn't a super tight fit. The cover is a friction fit to the base. I printed my version from PLA, which has nearly zero shrink after printing and the friction level is perfect, so if you print it out of material with more shrink, you might want to scale it for shrinkage accordingly, but probably isn't absolutely necessary because I left enough room around the key itself so it wasn't really that tight to begin with.

 

I made one with my call sign on it (pictured), but created to versions without text and one with Modern Morse branding on it for others to print. Since this is one of my first models, please provide any constructive feedback you might have and let me know if you've printed it and how it works for you.

 

Included are the Fusion 360 files (*.f3d), .step files, and .stl files for easy remixing if you'd prefer.

 

Edit: print with the large flat surfaces on the build plate and enable supports to get a better print on the side grip protrusions.
