Picture Frames


Three picture frames were required for a significant day. I thicknessed some offcuts of scaffolding board and mitred the corners. Some glass from our old windows was cut down. An old box was used as a backing sheet.


I normally glue frames and hammer sprigs in for support, but this time I used proper V nails manually hammered in. They worked well, so much so that I didn't need to clamp the frames as the glue dried.
