This is a remix of “THE FRAME” by Wouter, specially adapted for the Apple iPad Pro 11" M4.
The original design was created for the 13-inch model and offers one of the best and most comfortable solutions for drawing. Since I use the 11-inch model (M4), I’ve modified the inlays and dimensions so that the smaller iPad now fits into the frame precisely and like a glove.
Why this frame is great:
Perfect ergonomics: The included stand offers a 14-degree tilt—ideal for hours of drawing (e.g., in Procreate) or modeling without neck or wrist pain.
Wide hand rest: The wide bezel around the iPad solves the problem of your hand slipping off the edges of the screen while drawing. It feels like working on a large sketchpad (similar to the Sketchboard Pro, but less bulky).
Full Access: Precise cutouts for the speakers, the USB-C charging port, and the buttons. The Apple Pencil Pro can still dock and charge on the iPad without any issues.
Versatile use: The iPad isn’t clamped in place; instead, it sits securely in the frame thanks to gravity and the precise fit (Caution: Do not hold the frame vertically!). The wide edges also make the frame perfect for use on the couch.

Print Settings:
Supports: No supports needed! (All chamfers are designed so that they can be printed without overhangs).
Brim: Generally not required.
Infill: 15–20% (Gyroid is recommended).
Walls (Perimeter): At least 3 wall lines for stability. For the inlay parts, I recommend 3 to 4 base layers for a sturdy surface.
Build plate: All parts fit on a standard print bed (256 x 256 mm). A textured PEI print bed ensures a great, uniform look for the surfaces (since the visible sides rest on the print bed).
Material: PLA works great. If you frequently use the tablet in a warm car or in direct sunlight, you should consider PETG.
Assembly:
Except for the feet, everything just snaps together and doesn't need to be glued.
Attaching the Feet:
Glue the feet to the underside of the frame using “UHU Hartkunststoff” (or a comparable adhesive). It’s very important that the frame lies completely flat while gluing so that it doesn’t warp and nothing wobbles later on. As shown in the picture, I recommend using screw clamps to press the frame—including the feet—flat against a tabletop. Do not remove the clamps until the adhesive has completely cured.
