Loving Heart Picture Frame Snap On No Supports

UPDATE June 28, 2023: I discovered a problem with the pegs on the Heart Picture Frame - Back file that was causing them to break off easily. I've fixed and reuploaded the file. If you've already downloaded this file, please save the new "Back" STL file over the old one. Thank you!

This lovingly crafted, heart-shaped picture frame was built with simplicity in mind. It's a beautiful but simple design, easily printed with no supports required. The two pieces are crafted with a 5-point peg system, precisely sized to snap together with ease - tight, but not too tight, so you can change out photographs anytime.

The Loving Heart Picture Frame makes a perfect gift for all kinds of holidays - Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Anniversary, Wedding, Baby Shower, and many more!

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, you can snag this one at a 10% discount (ends Feb 7, 2023, 1:00 PM EST).

DIMENSIONS
Heart Picture Frame - Base:
13.5cm x 12.8cm x 2cm (5.3in x 5.0in x 0.79in)
Heart Picture Frame - Back:
13.5cm x 9.66cm x 1cm (5.3in x 3.8in x 0.39in)

Fully Assembled Picture Frame:
12.5cm x 12.8cm x 2cm (5.3in x 5.0in x 0.79in)
Photograph Size Requirements:
The frame's inside dimensions require a photograph of at least 10.2cm x 8.9cm (4.0in x 3.5in), prior to cutting.

If you have a larger or smaller photo in mind, the Heart Picture Frame can be easily scaled up or down in your slicer. Just be sure to scale the X and Y evenly on both files (Base and Back). I do not recommend changing the Z scale, as its current size is appropriately sized for a free-standing photo frame.

ASSEMBLY (Do Not Glue!)
Cut your desired photograph to fit within the pegs of the frame. Line up the pegs on the Frame Base to the peg holes on the Frame Back. Gently press them together. They should snap together easily, without filing the pegs. You should be able to gently pull them apart to change the photograph.

Due to the thickness of the photo frame, you do not need to use high-quality settings to print it. However, you will need a minimum 20% Infill, combined with at least 3 Top/Bottom Layers. This will ensure the pegs are sturdy and don't crack or cave.

Layer Quality: 0.2

Note: If using Cura Slicer, you should not need to use the 'Exclusive' setting to make the pegs fit. They have already been sized appropriately.
