PICTURE FRAMES


Are there someone in this newsgroup that would be prepared to share some
information and experience on picture framing. Please!


Don't let anyone else know you can make them, or you'll do nothing but.

Seriously, best things for picture framers are a good mitering jig using the
saw of preference, and the four-cornered clamps.

If you cut your miters well, and make sure the opposite pieces are _exactly_
the same length, you don't need to chase alternately opening corners as the
glue dries. Straight-grained wood is nice, but straight pieces are really
all that's required.

For framing fabric, your subframe can be made adjustable, or you can get a
good set of stretching pliers. Obviously if you stretch the entire frame
with wedges, you'll want to wait on the outer frame.

Must be hundreds of books out there - go to a used book store or library and
keep the information fresh and in front of you as you work. If, as you
imply, your saw is not there, tell the group what you're using, and I'm sure
you'll get jig advice.
