Commisions #3: Mirror Frame #3

Well over the last two days i have been able to really get some good solid work done on my mirror frames. first i was able to mill all the lumber to final width.

then it was time to cut the piece. i don’t have a long miter bed with a stop block so i used double stick tape to hold the rough identical pieces together to give me exactly the same piece. the first picture is putting the tape on and the second is all the piece cut to final length.

Then i cut the groove in the first picture, the finished tongue in the second picture, and glued it up.

after it was done drying i router a rabbit in the back to house the mirror, you can’t really see it in the first picture but i made a mistake and went a little too far with the router. the second picture is after i made the repair.

the repair was in the back so it wasn’t much cosmetic it was because i wanted to have a structurally sound joint so i needed to put the wood back in there. so thats all for today. I should have the woodworking finished tomorrow and the finishing done by the end of the week. thanks for reading and all comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
