What plywood thickness is recommended for a 15-inch or 16-inch laptop stand?

We strongly recommend 6.0mm (1/4 inch) Baltic Birch plywood or 6.0mm cast acrylic for 14-inch to 17-inch laptops. It provides rock-solid zero-flex stability while still packing flat into a laptop bag.

How does the stand pack flat for travel?

Because the crossbar slides into the side leg mortises using a calibrated friction fit (T - K) without glue, you can pull the crossbar out in 2 seconds and stack all 3 flat plates inside your laptop sleeve.

Will the front hooks block my laptop trackpad?

No. The front retention lip is engineered with a low-profile 18mm hook height and wide crossbar spacing (W) so the center trackpad notch on MacBooks and Windows laptops remains completely unobstructed.

Are the inner cooling cutouts exported on the same CUT layer?

Yes! Both the triangular ventilation cutouts and the circular rear cable routing holes are exported as closed inner LWPOLYLINE loops on the CUT layer.

Structural Geometry & Material Reference (3-Piece Slotted Crossbar A-Frame Ergonomic Riser Standard)

An interlocking 3-piece laser-cut Laptop & Tablet Riser Stand elevates portable computers at an ergonomic viewing angle using two angled side leg frames with curved front retention hooks and a single horizontal crossbar brace. To assemble without glue or screws while supporting heavy laptops without lateral racking, the angled mortise slots in the side legs and the mating slots in the crossbar are automatically compensated for your exact sheet caliper and laser kerf (W_slot = T - K). Both side legs feature weight-reduction cooling cutouts and rear cable management routing.

Kerf-Compensated Interlocking Mortise Slot Width (W_slot)

W_slot = max(1.2 mm, T - K)

Subtracts laser beam kerf (K) from sheet thickness (T) so the crossbar locks into the two side leg frames with zero lateral play.

Ergonomic Deck Tilt Angle (Theta_tilt)

Theta_tilt = arctan((H_rear - H_front_lip) / L_base)

Computes the ergonomic keyboard incline angle (typically 18°–24°) from your base depth (L) and rear elevation height (H).

Crossbar Outer Span Width (W_crossbar)

W_crossbar = W_span + 2 * (12 mm + T)

Adds structural locking shoulders outside both mortise slots so the side legs cannot splay outward under load.
