  • How to make a picture frame 3 different ways. I use the miter saw, handheld router, table saw, and router table. The skills go from DIY picture frames to advanced woodworking techniques at the router table. You can make easy picture frames as Christmas gifts for this holiday season. #woodworking #DIY #pictureframes

    As someone who used to work for a high end custom framing business-use a stop block on the miter saw and cut each leg separately. Don’t stack pieces and try to cut them both at the same time. If you do, you risk screwing up two pieces instead of one. Also, cut your long pieces first-if you mess up, you can chop it down to be a short leg and save materials.

      Hi Evan, I hope you're willing to help me. I plan on making a simple window frame. It will hold a pane of glass but it's strictly decorative. What type of wood do you suggest I use? Also, I've only got a miter box and saw to use.

    • @ritawashere5787
      @ritawashere5787 Před 4 lety

      Another question. If I use glazier points to hold the window into the frame what should I use for extra security? Because I don't have a router in order to make a Channel for the window to sit in two.

    *Ron Swanson voice* Our teenager asked me one day before the wife's birthday if we could "just go out and buy" a 36 x 12 inch frame. I watched this video instead and made the thing myself from scrap pine. I am semi-competent amateur woodworker but I had never made a frame before. It worked. This man and his video have my approval.

    @leesmith9467 Před 5 lety

    Thank you! Thank you! THANK YOU! I have watched dozens of DIY picture frame videos trying to figure out how to create that rabbet so is properly sized to accept the picture and backing. Most either never mentioned it, or treated it as no big deal. Well I wasted a lot of good wood and therefor a lot of $$ chasing after that rabbet. You FINALLY took the time to explain its importance and how to get it right -- and it's easy! You've earned my eternal gratitude and a new subscriber :-)

    Best glue up for end grain is to thin coat the end and allow to dry 5/10 minutes. Then apply finish glue and assemble. I did this for plain T joint 3/4" square oak. On the test , the oak bent before the glue failed.
    Great video.

    I learned a lot watching your video. My wife's dad was a locally famous artist and collector of fine art. He was the professor at University of Florida for 20 years and Sante Fe JUCO for another 20 before he passed away. My wife inherited part of his 1.3 million $ art collection so we sell fine art and have dozens of paintings that need to be framed. I'm hoping to learn how to frame some so we don't have to pay someone else to do it all the time. I like the fact you showed your mistakes and went back and corrected them. For that reason and the fact I learned so much as a beginner I subscribed to your channel. Thank you so much. ( Rusty)

    I have been being asked to make frames for 3 years by somebody. He says today... I want YOU to make them I will pay you top dollar.. I am going to put aside the time and make some frames.
    Good video with no SHTICK.
    I know the peters video already.
    but, decided to scope around for others.
    I am gonna do something like the third one. I may dabble with my domino on those corners to see how it goes with small parts.
    Subbed!

  • @markandrews7116
    @markandrews7116 Před 5 lety +4

    when I view video's, I prefer to "binge" on them. Having the next video cued up is just the greatest idea yet. It also goes without saying that I also enjoy a lack of a time wasting minutes long intro on each video - I know what I'm watching and why so I think it's great you get right down to it. I appreciate the smarts you offer. I'm not in this league but I think it's great to learn about the techniques you show. Thanks muchly - and yes, I'm subscribed

    Nice frames Brad, i'm thinking of making some frames using both a Spline Jig for those corners, and also my Trim Router that is on my Bench Top table or use it by hand.
    Mine is a Makita one that has excellent dust collection that you attach a hose to, and i haven't had any probs with chips everywhere, must be a Rigid problem then.
    Thanks for the ideas.

    I am a total novice at woodwork but enjoy what I do get to do (mostly cutting wood for small building projects). Christmas is coming, and I want to uniformly frame all of my husband's Navy certificates, awards, and pictures so they'll look sharp on his office wall, but frames are Pricey!!! So, I thought I'd see how hard it would be to make a frame and I found your video. The video is so well done - it's clear and easy to follow, and your easy manner instills confidence, whether I should be confident or not! LOL Well, I'm going to give this a try!! I will need to buy a router, but that's something I've wanted to do anyway. I'm nervous about trying this but also excited. And I think he will love having frames that I made for him, as well
