Homemade gifts are always the best: ask any mum worth her salt and that's what she'll say. So, pick your best shots, print them off and start work on this elegant multi-image photo frame. That way mum can be reminded all year how loved she is.
Step 1 - Using a straight bit set the hand router to rebate the frame to the same depth as the thickness of your dividers (10mm), and set your guide to rebate in 6mm. This will allow the glass and MDF backing to sit into the frame. It's a good idea to practise on a piece of scrap wood. For safety, use clamps to secure and support the piece to your workbench.
Step 2 - The number of photos you want to display will determine the size of your frame. Also allow for the dividers. Using the 45-degree angle on the combo square, and with the rebates facing inwards, neatly cut along the waste side of the pencil line.
Step 3 - Glue the mitred joints and clamp together using mitre clamps. Fix 14mm staples across the joints to help hold them in place. Now fix the corner brace on to the back corners with screws.
