Instructions: Electric Guitar Key Cover Customization
1. Choose Guitar Size
There are two sizes of the guitar:
- Small → for normal to smaller keys
- Large → for larger keys (otherwise the recess appears too large or the proportions do not fit)
👉 Separate files are available for trapezoid and hexagon (Small and Large)
2. Choose Key Type
Four head shapes are supported:
🔵 For round keys → use the sliders with ◯
◼️ For square keys → use the sliders with ■
Trapezoid (trapezoidal)
⬡ Hexagon (hexagonal, also rotatable)
⚠️ Important Note:
If a shape has been chosen, you only need to set the slider with a red (!) to 0 for the other shapes (e.g., “Square_Position” or “Round_Position”). All other values for this shape remain unchanged!
3. Measure with Calipers
For the key to fit correctly, you need to precisely adjust the pin and slot:
Common values:
- Pin_Position → Distance from the hole in the key head to the outer edge of the head
Pin_Diameter → Diameter of the pin that fixes the key
Round:
- Round_Diameter → Diameter of the head
- Round_Position (!) → Distance from outer edge of head to shoulder
Round_Depth → Depth of the recess
Square:
- Square_Width → Width of the head
- Square_Height → Height of the head
- Square_Position (!) → Distance from outer edge of head to shoulder
Square_Depth → Depth
Trapezoid (separate file):
- Trapezoid_TopWidth → Top edge of the head (narrow side)
- Trapezoid_BottomWidth → Bottom edge of the head (wide side)
- Trapezoid_Height → Height of the head
- Trapezoid_Position (!) → Distance from outer edge of head to shoulder
Trapezoid_Depth → Depth
Hexagon (separate file):
- Hex_Diameter → Corner to corner distance (outer diameter)
- Hex_Position (!) → Distance from outer edge of head to shoulder
- Hex_Depth → Depth
- Hex_Rotation → Rotation in 30° increments
👉 Tip: Always measure with calipers and allow 0.2–0.3 mm clearance, as 3D prints often turn out slightly tighter.
4. Printing Material Recommendations:
- PLA or PETG
- Layer height: 0.1 mm
- Infill: 15–20 %
- Support: not needed
5. Application
Place the key in the bottom half (over the pin). Place the top half on top. Optional: Glue the halves together so the key cannot fall out.
- Place the key into the bottom half over the pin (head in the recess, shaft facing outwards).
- Place the top half of the guitar on top.
Optional:
The two halves can be glued together so that the key cannot fall out.
⚠️ Caution: If you glue the halves together, it will be very difficult to remove the key later!
Test:
Insert the key into the lock. If it doesn't fit → re-measure and correct the values.
✨ Done – your key is now securely and stylishly housed in a guitar cover!
