A simple stand design suitable for books, tablets, and more. The stand is designed to fit most small or medium sized paperback books. It can also be scaled to suit larger books or other needs (such as a phone stand). The back can be customized with different patterns, textures, or images.

The attached easel files were designed for .32" MDF. If the material you wish to use is different than this then open the SVG in the digital files section and adjust the slot widths to the correct size.
At this point you can also change the overall size of the design to suit your needs. Just be careful to make sure everything still lines up. Try printing a paper version to test the new proportions.
For this area I created a simple linear pattern. This could almost anything, even an etching of an image, icon, or pattern.

For this cut try using double sided tape to secure the material. This will help with the small parts. Use a 1/16" endmill to keep tight interior corners, creating the best fit.

Once your parts are cut they should snugly fit together. If there are any tolerance issues, use a small file to enlarge the slots, or sand the parts to be slightly thinner.
Included in the file are two different size hooks. Pick the best size based on your desired use. You can also cut these in a different accent material.
