Popular Post Tbow388 Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 7, 2022 This is for my wife for Christmas. The portrait is from an Acadia Cutting Board. The frame is OLD OLD wormy oak with Walnut Splines. The acadia was 3/4 thick so I made a slightly larger underframe out of oak so it would match the thickness of the portrait and add a little dimension to the square frame.

Dak0ta52 Posted December 8, 2022 Report Share Posted December 8, 2022 I really like the antique look the wood gives the piece. You did a fantastic job, Tbow. I put splines in the corners of the frames I build but that is the first time I've seen them placed on the face of the frame. I'll have to check into that. Thanks for sharing!

Cut your 45's then set the table saw at a 45. Put your fence close to the blade, set the blade for the depth you want them in the frame and then run them through the correct direction. Normally a joint for boxes but I wanted to do it on that frame. Dak0ta52 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
