Project Information

This is such an easy way to make a frame

It is Bur/Burl Wyche Elm

Finished with a kind of Danish Oil

Then de-nibbed with 0000 steel wood

with Beeswax, left to dry and scrubbed with

a hard cloth.

The back has a 1/2" recess for either picture

or Mirror.

I make a jig for the rebate & use a ski to mill the

rest of it. to suit the cut out. Then I cut out the

centre last. Makes the process much easier.

The students often make these and it always gets

a great response

Ahh, the natural beauty of wood, great looking frame. If you get a chance, how about some pics with a mirror or pictures in it?

I like the beauty of the piece, and the beauty of the wood itself. It is a peaceful combination of Mother Nature's creation and your imagination. Well done!
