re: Another Natural Edge Picture Frame

Thank you all for the nice comments. A natural edge frame is difficult to make the opposite sides exactly the same  because I cannot use the conventional method of an end gage over the 45 degree angle corner because they are not the same width out there.  So I used  a pencil line each on the two frame members that was exactly the same distance from the inside  far corner. I cut one piece and when it was the correct length, I transferred that pencil line to the miter sled. I put the second piece on the sled and lined up the two pencil lines and made the cut and they came out the same length on the inside where the picture goes. Actually, I can use this method for any picture frame I make on that sled.

Hi Bruce. What ammo ? You've got me  on that one!!


Hi Rob. I like these discs in the pocket for holding in the picture, even if it is not ever removed. I don't like the metal pins either. It is all woodworking this way.
