I use Frame Turns. Here’s a source:

I have used frame turns on small frames. These frames are actually for large posters and will be permanent. I have read some people use brads to secure them, but I am afraid of breaking the glass while trying to nail into hard maple.

I haven’t found a wood too hard for picture points, e.g.

Can you do a little drilling to help out the picture points?

Mike:

There is no need to drill when using the squeezer thing to insert the picture points.
I’ve never found a wood that is too hard for this technique.
