My grand father asked me to make a photo frame a little over a year ago and I finally made it and delivered it to him.
Since I only had 6 days to finish this project along with another project (which I will post here soon), I quickly made a shooting board and cut a miter. I know I was busy through the year, I could only afford 6 days out of the whole year (just joking, I’m just a last minute guy)... I even wished I had a table saw to finish it, haha.
The spline was going to be 1/8" thick but as I messed up cutting it so badly, it ended up about 1/4"... The thickness doesn't really matter to this project so it was ok but it just cost me extra time with the chisel to enjoy.....
Anyways, I made them within the time lines and I successfully delivered them to my grand father and my parents. I like the grains of both wood and I'm happy with the result.
Great frames YRTi. I like the thicker splines. I may try them. You were taking a chance waiting over a decade to finally build these frames for grandpa. Locky he’s still around. 😟
It’s great to see you posting again YRTi. They work great with the photos. James. He didn’t take a decade it was only over a year. But you’re right about cutting it close.
Pottz, Thank you. But the lyrics would be very spicy, especially after a missed cut! James, Thank you. He's asking me if I can make a walking stick now and maybe I should rush to make it for the reason, haha... DrQuackner, Thanks you. I was just busy in the past months and now catching up:)
