Thank you, this is just what I need to make my own frame for a print I got for cheap. I went to Michael's with a 50% off coupon, expecting to be able to get a relatively inexpensive frame for my oddly sized print, but even with the discount, the price was outrageous! These instructions will save me a bundle, and I'll be able to get exactly the frame I want!
This is the first video I saw that uses the math formula to measure the rabbet and work to the outside corners. Thanks
Like the equation - makes it foolproof! One thing I've always done is to cut biscuit slots in each side of the miter to align the miters and additional glue strength. I also cut and glue keys in each of the 4 corners vs nails and putty which always falls out over time!
Wow, what a great video! So clearly presented, even I can follow it. Love it! Thank you very much!!!
- Very good, clear, concise info. Rhanx.
You did good by providing the formula but the key to miters (cutting the 45 is the easy part) is that the opposite sides need to be exactly the same size. A stop block should have been used.
Found exactly the information I was looking for. I had not though of using finishing nails rather than V Nails. I am making a delicate frame and was afraid the v nails would crush it. I like the alternative as well as the explanation of the math.
The problem with gluing free-floating sides is that they can be misaligned from being flat. I prefer laying the whole frame flat on the work table, and using clamps that allow the frame to lie flat, like spring C-clamps.
Loved your video. Very informative. I appreciate you giving us the formula as well. Sure made things easier.
Too much overthinking. I measure from the inside wall of the Rabbet. I add the 1/8th inch play, and am not concerned about the Miter cut, only that I have enough stock. Make a template from a piece of wood, and use a knife to mark (neater/sharper) Be aware of the Kerf of the saw blade (the material removed by the blade). Make a Sacrificial Fence, consisting of an L shaped plywood section, that rests short end against the fence of the Miter Saw. Use clamps to secure (important). Now make cuts on both sides of 45 degrees. Use the cut fence marks to align future miters. Cut your stock After you paint it, and make sure to buy a blade that has the most teeth. You will thank me later.
Just in case people are still looking for the railing. Search (Pre-grooved chair railing) lowes, Homedepot, Manards) carry them but sometimes their railing is special order.
Framing in french cuffs... classy!
This worked great, I have never made a frame and I know they can be tricky. I found an app for the fraction math no biggie. Question could you do a follow up on this showing the actual rabbit cuts and any other details that I can't think of. I want to do this for home stuff and I want to make sure I got it right. Great video and technique anyways.
Thanks! -- this is exactly how I was taught years ago...
This type of project has been a real hit with woodworkers all around, thanks! BTW if you didn't know Hyezmar released his Woodworking Bible at no cost, he's just looking for feedback.
Well, the important size for me is the inside dimensions, is there a formula to calculate the rnside dimensions first?
wow this is awesome.my son did it.
Something seems to be missing. Chair rail doesn't have the recessed notch cut out along the edge that is so important for the frame. Did you run these down a table saw first?
@@PandawdyBob the recessed edge at the back that holds the picture in place, they skipped that part entirely
helpful - thank you
i looooove the music...is it not from windows vista ??? ))
I wonder how did this extremely simple craft turn into such an expensive specialty racket?
right...
What kind of corner clamp is that?
Good.
Take this
Ye sab tools india me kaha se milega
What clamp did you use
Do you recommend a type of board for the back of the frame?
Jason Hunt Hi Jason! After you put all your materials in the frame, we recommend finishing the back with a piece of foam core or mounting board.
The American Frame TH-cam Channel do you recommend glass for the front of the artwork? or clear plastic sheet... etc?
You can use 1/8th inch clear plastic but you won't be able to clean it with paper towels. It could get scratched easily. Lowes has 1/8th inch picture frame glass that is cheap and they will cut it to any size you want for free.
Hotrod Hog I am bigger fan of H.D. and thank you for your advice. It will come in handy!
We don't have Home Depot here so Lowes is my only choice Lol
I can not find that style of chair rail at any Lowes. do you have a item number for it by chance.
cmt853 Hi there. Unfortunately we do not still have the item information. Have you tried other local hardware stores in your area?
is that a fibre frame?
Did I miss the part where you create the "grooves" in back for the glass to sit on?
+Shandi Almasy You didn't miss a thing! We actually used a type of chair rail that is used with bead board. It already has the lip cut into it.
I love your watch! Can you tell me how it's called?
sbazzino When I was a child in the 80's, I had a pulsar watch similar to this one. with the power of eBay, I was able to acquire this Model. It is a "Citizen JG2000-59F Temperature Vintage DualTime Analog Digital Silver Tone Watch." What a name! They make them in gold also and you can still get them new. and it is very water resistant. Here is the link. @121231611529
cool watch, what kind of watch is it?
Might post this under the title; Using chair rail to enhance cabinet doors. That is what I am doing now.
the math problem just threw me way off.... I went to a public school..... i need to go watch another video to solve fractions
you dont need the drum mach9ne
i think it would be more useful to show techniques to make the frame without all the frame-making tools, so maybe the average person can make one
I think this was intended to be a training video for professional framers.
Steven McLean u cant make a good frame without d tools. At list a frame clamp
what tools?? hammer??? If you don't own a miter saw you should not even try this....
The only "frame making" tool here really is the corner clamps which are like $9. A regular hammer works just fine and if you don't have or can't afford a $5 nail punch maybe you should just pay the $100 plus dollars for an already made frame... wait that doesn't make any sense either.
Hi, I wanna know where and how can I find the little metal things in the back of the frame to hold the pictures?
+Aodi Liang We carry point drivers and points which are perfect for using with wood frames. Is this what you are looking for? www.americanframe.com/products/fletcher-framemaster-point-driver-f3010.aspx
Cool, that's the one. Thank you so much~
You're welcome!
- Haha... I just found it was easier to order a metal frame, mat and foam board from the website yesterday. 1-27-21
if i had paid for a frame to be made and got that i refuse it.

You just need a t square, pencil & hacksaw & iv never made a frame before
You could just karate chop the wood and use boogers as glue too. At least in theory...
now you are ready to nail.
I would not recommend these cutting instructions!
the other youtube channel seems more expertise
what channel? I am trying to build my own frame but it is hard finding the molding in the video. Only found frame molding online.
No I mean the creator of this video XD
Very interesting plans for something like that I have found on the Stodoys website.
with Stodoys plans doing something like that was easy.

I check a lot of woodworking handbooks. These one from woodprix are the best.
Woodprix is a scam and is selling stolen plans from other wood makers/artists.
woodprix is full of awesome tips. Very helpful to me. Thanks
I bought instruction from Woodprix and I build it very very cheap.
My works too. Used Woodprix handbooks and build it with no problems.
Woodprix is a scam and is selling stolen plans from other wood makers/artists.
so i made it also . just by using woodprix woodworking plans:)
I can make it myself. Just got instructions from woodprix website and I'm ready for do it :D
Was curious about woodprix and found this... www.thegeekpub.com/4358/woodprix-is-a-scam/
