John B Posted October 28, 2018 Author Report Posted October 28, 2018 Thanks all, This frame is quite popular on Western type cuttings. It's a bit more work than a standard mitred frame but pretty easy to do. I cut the pieces to length, mark out and cut half-lap joints by setting the blade on the table saw at 1/2 the thickness of the timber. I then use the wheel on my belt sander to texture the face edges. Glue the frame together and cut the rebate in the back with a router. Quote
heppnerguy Posted October 28, 2018 Report Posted October 28, 2018 Great piece.. You make it sound like an easy frame. but for me, the simplest frame are always an extreme challenge. I really like your work on this one Dick heppnerguy John B 1 Quote
