I taught myself framing earlier this year for some antique maps that I own, and it is surprisingly hard. Cutting the passe-partout, the glass, picking the right kind of frame, getting the proportions right. Even something simple as getting 45 degree corners is really really difficult as the required precision is really high. In the end I did some decent ones that I'm happy with, but I'm still a one-trick pony with the (basic) materials that I used. Love working with my hands though, and it saves a bit of money compared to getting it done professionally.
- panta 6y agoDo you have any pointers to resources on how to learn? I'm a zero-trick pony and I'd like to learn :-)
