Step1: File creation

As always I used Illustrator as it is more powerful to create shapes easily and has a better handling for text customization.

This project is created from lots of rectangles and some circles so it's possible to create in XCS.

Step2: Import and cutting settings

I export my designs as .svg from illustrator to import into XCS.

If you use my file directly it's all sorted by Colors:

  • Red = Cut
  • Green = Engrave

The sentence that engraves is only in German so if you want something else you need to replace this.

Step3: Assembling the Photoframe

The pocket for the image is very easy to create as you only need to add the thin U-shaped piece onto the backplate from the frame.

Step4: Glueing to phone stand

Then glue the frame part to the base plate of the phone stand. 

Make sure to place it near the cutout and aligns on the top.

I added some tape as support while the glue dries.

Step5: Assemble to final

I think thats the easiest and self-explanatory. But if you have no clue, you only need to slip the left piece that looks like an "H" into the little cut outs. 

If you use 3mm it should be a good tight fit so no need to glue together. Also I don't to take the stand with me if I need to.

Step6: Add Photo and enjoy!

Only what left is to add you image and use it for your phone. Mine sits perfectly but as I don't own another cam I can't show very good. But this way you can see the very cute effect with the little hearts and your photo.

 

I hope you like it! ~ Anzy
