I have yet only made 2 things from wood - self taught just to see if I could.
They aren't pretty or perfect but considering they were firsts for me, I feel I didn't do too badly.
The first was a puzzle frame. My miter saw was not squared up so the joints are off some. Routering out the back so the puzzle is recessed was interesting too (with router attachment for my Dremel)

Nice work on your frame. It takes awhile to learn woodworking, some learn faster than others, but that doesn't really matter as the journey is where the fun is and we always learn something new from every project either through success or failure. Have fun!

Very nice! something you might try in the future when you have slight gaps in your cuts, mistakes, cracks etc… take some titebone wood glue and pour a small about into the cracks then go over with sand paper allowing the sawdust to fall into the cracks on top of the glue and you'll never even know.
