Pictured is my Kobo Clara 2e with a laser cut leather cover hand stitched to the 3D Printed Parts and replaceable arms. So far I have the Kobo Clara 2e, Kobo Nia and the Kobo Clara HD designed. I've also made the parts available on

If it’s a 7.8” I have a standard base for it too. Just need to do a bit of clean up on it first though. Though I’ve yet to make one for bigger since my print bed is only 200mmx200mm

Yeah mine is 7.8" so if you happen to publish that base it should fit. Thanks!

Here is the base frame for our 7.8" E-Reader case https://github.com/the16bitgamer/16BitVirtualStudiosDesigns/tree/main/GLoA%20E-Reader%20Cases/7.8%20inch

If you need an example on how to make the arms the 6" is probably the better place to go, as it's going to take a bit to clean up the cases.
