Arts and Crafts Frame

It has a nice antiquish look to it. Thanks for the idea of how to do the frame stand. I’ve been trying to come up with a way to do one. I was going to do one that would fold, like found in the store, but there is a special hinge(that I haven’t see available anywhere) that connects the backing to the leg. I’m going to look at whether or not your design will work on my frame. How deep is the leg into the frame?

Nicely done Andy, and the spline/border idea is great.

Nice design details as always, Andy!

Os is right; it does have a nice antiquey look to it. good technique as well.

Thanks OS,Damian,Charlie and Thos!
@Os-the mortise is about 1/2” deep.Its very stable on this size frame but I would use two on a wider one.The angle of tilt is determined by the length of the leg.It pulls out for shipping/storage.

Oh yes, I do like that spline idea very much; very much indeed. Isn’t this Lumberjocks just great! Thanks again for introducing me to it Andy.

I think you are on to something with this design. Really interesting looking frame and appears to be pretty straight forward build.
