Swivel 6x4 photo frame

This 3D printed swivel frame is made to hold standard 4x6 photos in a unique and interactive way. 

 

The frame features an inner and outer section (162 mm x 211 mm), connected by pins through the center, allowing the inner frame to rotate smoothly. This clever design means you can display two photos—one on each side—and simply flip the frame to change the view.

 

The sturdy, wide outer frame is designed for stability and can be placed in either portrait or landscape orientation, making it adaptable to any space. Durable yet lightweight, this modern swivel photo frame offers a clean, minimalist style with a playful, functional twist—perfect for desks, shelves, or bedside tables.

 

Assembly instructions:

Materials:  Laminated or non-laminated 6x4 photo, glue (eg. super glue, UHU).

 

1. Place a small drop of glue into each of the five holes of the inner frame, and then press the two halves together.

2. Then secure the outer frame to the inner frame by inserting the pins through the diamond holes, and wedging them tight.  If they don't stay secure, then a little bit of glue on the inside of the diamond hole may be required.

3. Now slide your photos into the inner frame.  If using laminated photos leave only 1-2 mm of laminate surrounding the photo. If using non-laminated photos, and you find that in the portrait orientation the photos slides down a little, and therefore are not centred inside the frame, just place a thin bit of cardboard (10.5 x 15.5 cm) between the photos, in order to secure/wedge the photo in place.

4. To stop the photos from falling out, slide the long wedge into the slot.
