cheeseburger Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 I Garbage picked half an old wooden windows frame from my neigbors burn pile (everyone around here has a burn pile) don't you? lol it was missing 3 of the panes., My honey baby saw it and wanted it to be a picture frame, so it came to pass. I bought some Acrylic from the home center and used a number 3 FD Ultra reverse blade on a low speed to cut the panes to find the windows from the back. they are a friction fit. I also tried a new stain called Driftwood from rustoluem, Its kind of a dull grey.. I Like it. It's a nice dull grey finish that had the antique look I wanted. Not sure why the picture came out so grainy. I blame the iPad Camera. see if you can tell which panes got replaced. wombatie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Well Cheeseburger, that looks like a frame for 6 pictures. Good pick. The two center panes were replaced. You need a scenic outside view in that frame Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Johnson Posted March 22, 2014 Report Share Posted March 22, 2014 Good day Stephen Salvaging and putting frame to a different use. Now that is thinking. Should look great with photos or scroll work within. cheeseburger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
