Picture Frame Making, Everything You Need to Know. Includes Matting & Mounting

Magnífico seu trabalho.

How hard is it to have all measurements in metric?!

Your video tutorial is awesome It is easy to follow. Thanks for sharing this.

I've started making frames for my photos. Should i put a top coat on a stained frame? And what type do you suggest that isnt super glossy?

Thanks for the video. I didn't realize that paper can expand/contract over time with humidity.

Truly everything you need to know. The best video on the subject out of the dozens I've watched. Nice job!

spot on info with ez, clear dialog! THANK YOU

Hi!! Can You tell me what glue You use??

Where are you located

You're always great! Thanks for the video.

Very Nice.... 👍

I'm trying to figure out the black matt part. The frame is 2" looks like the black matt border looks about 1 1/4"?

What type of wood was used here? What are other types of wood you'd suggest?

your work shop is to clean

Great video, thanks David! I would like to make my own picture frames and I find this very helpful.

Pro tip: the formula can be shortened to 8x + 2L + 2W +2, where x is the frame width, L is the art length and W is the art width. Just easier to process that way i think.

You could use a frame clamp and save using all that tape...good video and explanation. Well done.

Hey, thanks for the video! Just wanted to share I learned the hard way that your length needed formula doesn't account for the alternating waste cuts. I think they can be avoided by flipping the work piece, but I tried to follow the method you used in the video as close as possible.

Sir hmko v aata hai ❤️

Cleanest workshop I have ever seen Man! 🥳

Don't you need to subtract the depth of the rabbet in the formula for length of stock?

👏👏👏👏👏👍

Sir Very nice work 👍
Neat n clean. I am very impressed

Any suggestion on supplier for wood, glass, UV protected plexiglass and matting? You've inspired me to start doing this.

Was interested until I saw the hole saw nonsense

This is great! So much great information!

Great looking shop.

Wish you didn't use that job.

Thank you for that formula! 🏆

Do you still subtract the width of the rabbet x 2 as this was not mentioned on the monologue but was in the pop up formula?

Your shop is way too clean it’s freaking me out but good work good workman

David I love seeing a man that can make anything out of the wood he has

Finally, now knowing how to secure the the guts. However, I’m not so sure how to avoid cracking the glass on the edges.

Great job and ideas to make a sharpe picture frame

i was thinking of making a super super huge frame for a 300 inch projector screen but i was not going to make the cut at each end to be like diagonal. then was going to put the screen inside the frame and use more wood to sandwich the screen between wood. hard to explain with out visuals no glass of any thing just the screen the screen had metal hole already was going to use some nuts the look like bolts that have groove in the out side and inside for got what thy are called kinda like what camera have to attach to a tripod at the bottom of a camera. i have more to it but would take a lot to explain but it just one idea i had to make a frame for a projector screen screen is 300" 262.6" x 148.4" so it say in amazon

Congrats on cleanliness, what a workshop!

Thanks a lot David, nice tips.
Congrats

Whats the beat in the background of video

I need an answer ASAP. Is the mat board the same material as the illustration board?

Hola, gracias porque ésto es una verdadera clase de como hacer un enmarcado profesional, prolijo , limpio, bonito, gracias.

Amazing ...simple but elegant

What I needed to know. However in your non-jig segment you measure 1.25 on the backside of the molding. If you have 2" molding with a .25" rabbit wouldn't it be 1.75" vs. 1.25" or did I miss something? Also I'd like to see a video showing making frames using Pocket Holes and how that measures out with same .25" rabbit.

If using the formula, are the results to the TOE or the HEEL of the miter?

Does the nail go into hardwood easily with the Pliers?

Couldn't you just cut your 45, then measure your artwork and add ⅛ and mark on the inside of the frame? I get that you double the width for the outside measurement, but wouldn't it work and be simpler to measure the cut on the inside?

I wish I had the talent instead of the looks! Great learning video! Thank you!

Fantastic! thank you :)

What is the type of tree?

David you were giving commercial on designing stuff on spurts, you weren’t wearing your’s
