Description

I scaled the frame, cutout an opening for art prints, added holes for hanging, and divided it into 4 parts. 

The frame measures 10 ¾" (27.305 cm) square after gluing the 4 parts together. The cutout fits art prints with total measurements of 205 mm square, a 5 mm thick foam core, and a 0.020" (0.508 mm) thick acrylic sheet. 

Due to the small details around the front of the frame, it is best to print at a layer height 0f 0.2 or lower. Infill should be about 30% or more. I printed this with a 0.6 nozzle at 0.3 height and the print was more like a wire frame than a regular print. I needed to use a lot more filler than I expected, resulting in a lot of extra sanding. 

I used E 6000 to glue the parts together and Elmer's Carpenter's color change wood filler to fill in holes and seams. 

I used a belt type band to hold the pieces together, but I suggest using JohnV's Frame Corner Clamp (as I will with future frame prints).

This is one of the frame models featured in the gallery wall article of Altered Rooms magazine. 

The video below shows how to make cuts of objects too large to fit on your print bed.
