Clear, concise and to the point. If you can't cut a picture frame from this video, you may want to pursue another hobby. Best video for cutting a frame I've seen. Thank you!
Daniel, just wanted to say thanks. I've watched a lot of these types of videos, and your video is as clear as it gets, and for that, I want to say thanks.
Excellent tutorial. All the important information in a straight forward and succinct presentation. Thank you! Looking forward to watching a few other of your videos on picture frames you linked in a reply to a comment below.
Daniel, that's a great video I want to thank you for sharing it with us. I'm new to wood working and I'd like to know how you made the rabbit. I'd also like to see you put it together. Thanks Carl.
Hi Carl, I cut the rabbet on a table saw with a dado blade. A router table or router with fence would also be fine for this. Here's a couple of other videos that might help with building a frame: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-PIU9m30Ay8s.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uw7OP7PTVqw.html
A frame that is 8x10 isnt for an 8x10 picture. It's for a 4x5 or 5x7 or something. If youre taking the time to make a frame for a picture then take the time to matte the picture as well. 11x14 for an 8x10 picture. always at least 1 size up
thanks for the tip. i always get headfuck when working out sizes regarding rebates so for example i want to frame for an A4 photo. 29.7x21. my inside edge to edge is this measurement but with a 5mm rebate this then means to picture will fall through. so.... do i reduce each piece. of the frame by 5mm? i struggle with maths. once i get a technique practiced and applied to all frames i will be happy
We all get confused with math like this, and it's why I measure directly on the rabbet. Make sure you cut the first angle with the rabbet down and against the fence, and then the second cut has the rabbet up, meaning you can make a direct measurement along the rabbeted edge.
