Paper picture-frame stand / LETTER

A good fit for your idea?

Letter and A4 preserve the component dimensions. Choose the sheet you will print, not a different object size.

Materials and construction

Plain 100 to 140 gsm paper for a first dimensional trial; approximately 160 to 220 gsm card only after confirming the folds. Use a ruler, suitable scissors, a blunt scoring tool and a small amount of paper adhesive. An adult should handle internal cuts, holes and small fasteners.

Before making a batch

Measure the 50 mm reference and two named component dimensions.

Make a complete empty trial and document fold direction, joining order, collision, stability and any fragile features.

Repeat the trial using your chosen paper. Check that every join holds and each moving part works freely before decorating.

Portrait

Triangular support: 65/55/40 mm panels, 68 mm wide; folded ledge 115 x 30 mm.

From file to finished page

  1. Score all panel hinges and form the triangular support, joining only the 15 mm seam.
  2. Fold the ledge into a shallow U and bond its rear flange to the front support panel.
  3. For the frame, attach the frame to the front face only and keep the opening clear.
  4. Trial with a lightweight paper display; no rated load or protective photo-storage performance is claimed.
Printing and use notes

Drawing dimensions describe flat paper surfaces, not verified internal capacity, load strength, fit or material compatibility.

No mailing, food-contact, archival, toy-safety, protective-wear or cutting-machine certification is supplied.

Make a plain-paper trial first; paper thickness and fold accuracy can change the fit.
