heppnerguy Posted July 28, 2016 Report Posted July 28, 2016 As you can tell, I am NOT a frame maker by any stretch of the imagination, but when the boss speaks, I jump. So I went to the shop and did my best to come up with a frame for this one. I guess I will just need to make a presentation to my bride before I post something here. If it needs a frame I will just have to go out to the shop and attempt to make one. I have to admit, even with the shabby frame I made, it does look more finished with one. Who knows, if I keep having to make frames, eventually I might catch on how to do that. Time will tell Dick heppnerguy bobscroll 1 Quote
DWSUDEKUM Posted July 28, 2016 Report Posted July 28, 2016 Frames make the project look more complete most times. Great job on that btw. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote
Lucky2 Posted July 28, 2016 Report Posted July 28, 2016 Dick, I think your wife was right, it does look better framed. And the frame you made look great, the style is right on for this type of cutting. Len Old Joe and heppnerguy 2 Quote

Scrappile Posted July 28, 2016 Report Posted July 28, 2016 See nothing wrong with that frame and it does upgrade the picture. I hate making frames also... heppnerguy and Old Joe 2 Quote
Denny Knappen Posted July 28, 2016 Report Posted July 28, 2016 Everything looks better in a frame, but then we own a custom frame store. Quote
heppnerguy Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Posted July 28, 2016 Everything looks better in a frame, but then we own a custom frame store. I wish I had your skill and talents. Wow a custom frame store. I need to come work for you for free just to learn how to make a decent frame. Dick heppnerguy Quote
Denny Knappen Posted July 28, 2016 Report Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) Any time, Dick. It helps to have the right equipment. Edited July 28, 2016 by Denny Knappen Quote

rjR Posted July 28, 2016 Report Posted July 28, 2016 Dick, it is fine! That commute to TN will be a long one! Quote
meflick Posted July 28, 2016 Report Posted July 28, 2016 You must heed my husband's adage - no two greater words then "Yes Dear". Think she was onto something - looks great in that frame. You did a fine job on the frame. Thanks for sharing the "upgrade" version. heppnerguy 1 Quote
heppnerguy Posted July 28, 2016 Author Report Posted July 28, 2016 Dick, it is fine! That commute to TN will be a long one! I know, Ralph, Tennessee is a long way away and I will never be able to make that trip, but wouldn't it be great to be able to work with a pro and learn something you could use the rest of your life? Hey, have you been working on that new Leath of yours, lately. I don't recall anything new from it for some time. Maybe you need to go fire it up soon Dick heppnerguy Quote
