Making your own natural wood frame for a 3/4" stretched canvas is not difficult, it just takes a few tools and a bit of careful planning. 

The tools that you will need are:
  • Hemlock outside corner moulding long enough to surround your piece and allow for a little bit of waste from cutting. (1-1/8" x 1-1/8" approx $5.85/foot)
  • Pencil for marking the lengths
  • Tape measure
  • 1/4" Staples
  • Staple gun
  • Painters tape
  • Wood glue
  • A framer's square
  • Tung Oil for finishing
  • Mitre saw or Mitre box and hand saw for cutting.
  • Small screws (#4  5/8" screws)
  • Counter sink bit for creating a lovely cup shape for the screw to seat into.
Before we begin, do you see the diagonal arrows at the lower right corner?  If you click on those arrows the video will expand to a larger version.  Roll your cursor over the lower right hand corner and the diagonal arrows will show up.
