1. I had a picture frame design in mind for a nice print. It is hard to make something original when it comes to frames. Once approval was given and Ash was chosen as the material, the machining process began. I created a jig to hold the frame pieces on an angle through the Thickness Planer.
2. The inner and outer frames glued up using keys to reinforce the mitres.
3. Fitting the ebony pegs and checking the alignment of mortices on the inner and outer frame pieces. The sample is in the middle.
4. The frame disassembled and the finish being applied.
5. The Ebony pegs being inserted and pinned in place.
6. The completed frame hanging on the wall.
