The prompt

Design a mechanical photo frame as an assembly. Units: millimetres. Coordinate system: X = depth, 0 at the inner face of the front glass and increasing toward the back. Y = vertical, 0 at the top surface of the floor, increasing upward. Z = width, 0 at the centre of the frame. Main idea: a stack of 10 rigid photo cards stands on edge between the glass and a spring-loaded follower. The frame has an open top. In use, the front card lifts straight up out of the top, slides backward over the stack and drops into a slot at the rear. A box behind the stack holds the crank, cams, spring barrel and clock. The frame at rest is about 195 wide, 120 tall and 22 deep. The rear box adds about 55 depth. Parts at rest: 1. Front glass: 170 x 106 x 2 mm, plane at X = -2 to 0, Y = 0 to 106. 2. Photo cards: 10 identical flat rigid cards, each 152 (Z) x 100 (Y) x 0.8 (X), standing on the floor and touching each other. Card k occupies X = 0.8k to 0.8k+0.8. Each has two small foot lugs, 3 mm wide, at the bottom corners. 3. Floor: 3 mm thick slab, X = -2 to 19, Z = -97 to 97. Two through-slots under the card bottom corners, each 5 (Z) x 21 (X), centred at Z = +/-74. 4. Side walls: left and right, 14 thick, 106 tall, X = -2 to 19. Each has a vertical channel 156 apart that guides the card edges and a 5 mm wide vertical slot for the lift struts. 5. Follower plate: 154 (Z) x 94 (Y) x 3 (X) at X = 8 to 11, pressing on the last card. A compression spring, 8 mm long, 12 mm diameter, sits between the follower and the back wall. 6. Back wall: 3 thick at X = 19 to 22. 7. Open top: no cover between the side walls above Y = 103. A hinged lid, 200 x 24 x 3, lies along the top edge. 8. Lift yoke: a U-shaped frame. Two vertical struts, 4 x 6 x 130, run in the side-wall slots. Each ends in a thin horizontal blade, 4 (Z) x 1.6 (X) x 0.5 (Y), under a card's bottom corner. A horizontal bar joins them behind the back wall, with a slot 20 long (Z) x 8 wide. 9. Rear box: X = 22 to 80, Z = -97 to 97, Y = -20 to 135. It holds a camshaft along X at Y = 67, Z = 0, with a crank disc, a spring barrel and a clock movement.
