My granddaughter purchased a painting with tree's and her mother ask if I would make a frame for the painting for her birthday. The frame needed to be 36" x 46" and shipped to Houston, TX. I decided to use Miter Bolts and domino's at each miter joint so that her dad could assemble the frame.
Wood; Mahogany
Frame width 8"
Clip Art; D & M
Tree Picture Frame

Re: Tree Picture Frame
That is one nice frame.... I'll have to try those miter bolts. They look like they'll do the job. Do you use just the bolts, or add glue?

Re: Tree Picture Frame
I used one Miter Bolt and two Domino's at each joint. I sent some Type II glue with the K/D frame so her dad could add glue to the joint. The Domino's keep the joint lined up so that it can not twist.
Thank You
Doug
