DIY Case Project, 3rd Party Case & Samsung Keyboard

[TelemachusX]

Hello,

Currently I've seen no 3rd party cases which are compatible with the Samsung Keyboard Case (keyboard part, I'd be replacing the magnetic back for something sturdier), so it seems I will need to do this as a DIY project. My plan was to cut away the bottom structure of the 3rd party case to expose the pogo pins, and leave the rest intact for better edge protection.

I have two cases in mind, please see links below. My concern for the first case is that the bevels are too high, and for the second, that the kickstand is raised a bit towards the back. Any additional case suggestions are welcome.

My other questions are regarding "flipping back" the Samsung keyboard when using it tablet mode, while it is still attached, and if anyone has any experience with a project like this. I mainly use the tablet during work (I work at a hospital) and am either in our hospital software in tablet mode (holding it in my hand vertically), or sitting at a desk using it in keyboard mode. Ideally I'd like to find a situation where I can keep the keyboard attached at all times for ease of portability and use.

I did this exact thing, bought a clear case, cut the bottom off. Except instead of using the back I bought one of these. It works as a stand and a hand holder.
