I really like your video. Of all the DIY frame tutorials, yours is the best in simplifying the procedures, especially in using tools like the mitre box. All of the other videos explain use the mitre saws and band saws which I do not have. They always say its easy to make your own, but forget that not everyone has these machines available, nor the space for them.

My wife's brother passed away this past year from Covid and he had so many piece of canvas art he painted so your how to video for creating a frame seems ideal and simple enough. I just subscribed and will have to check out how to cut the miter joints on the corners as never done that. Thanks for the great video as Michaels wanted to charge me 200 to frame each one and he has about 30+ paintings on canvas. This will be a heart felt project as he and I found out that we both had served with the 82nd at the same time back in 1970.

I tried to make this frame, but in the end, found that my painting was just a smidge too big/my frame was a smidge too small. To have that floating look, should you add another 1/8 or 1/4 of an inch to the outside dimension?

@BurkeMakesStuff 3 жыл бұрын

You could, but that should happen automatically if you follow what I did in the video, because when I have you add the thickness of the framing material, we then cut it at a 45 degree angle. Doing that should add about 1/8 of an inch. Because the addition of the thickness would be if we were cutting it at a 90 degree angle. But if it didn’t work for you, def add a bit.

@@TRICO-WANDER yes and no. It was planned for, but not added. This may be a liittle hard to explain in writing. When I explained that to get the outside measurement for the frame, you add the thickness of the wood that’s accurate if we made 90 degree cuts, but we used the miterbox to make 45 degree cuts instead. That 45 degree cuts is slightly longer than the thickness of the wood simply because they are 45 degree cuts. That difference is what shows up in the final product as the gap around the painting. It’s hard to explain, but as long as people are trying to make a floating frame, and follow what I did in the video, it comes out right. 😆

I believe those were 1x2, but honestly it was so long ago, I’m not 100% certain

I'm hoping you invested in a miter saw by now! Other than that - nice video!

@BurkeMakesStuff 10 ай бұрын

I did. A looooong time back actually.

What was your source for the clamping band?

@BurkeMakesStuff Жыл бұрын

Home Depot. You can get them at any hardware store, or online. This one is good. amzn.to/3FJyqBR

I don't understand how the painting has space to give the floating effect with the measurements you took. Am I missing something?

@BurkeMakesStuff 2 ай бұрын

Yes, AND I forgot to say something in the video. The measurements INCLUDE the spaces in the math. Hard to explain after the fact, but one of the measurements that deals with the angled cut includes the variance for the space.

Hello, I want to try this but the canvas I have is just a canvas itself. It’s not on the frame. How can I create a frame for the canvas alone? Thanks

@BurkeMakesStuff 2 жыл бұрын

Not sure. But there MUST be a video on it out there somewhere.

Cricket you would need to mount the canvas to a backer board of Masonite or thin birch plywood. Seal ALL sides and edges with Golden's GAC 100. Two coats min, then using a pva acid free glue attach the canvas. Then you can use the floating frame.

Must include expansion gaps in your measurements

@BurkeMakesStuff 5 ай бұрын

For the frame? No. There won’t be any expansion… but if you mean for the gap itself, that is included in the fact that the way I explain the diagonal cuts, it that creates the gap, though I didn’t discuss it, it’s factored in.
