Lol thanks mate. I always say that the art work should always be the center stage and the frame is there to show it off. Thanks for dropping by mate, appreciate it
That spline jig has been around a long time and is all over YT, and a true floating picture frame would actually sit off of the wall, showcasing a shadow reveal. Nice job, though, but you can't take credit for the jig
Thanks so much for sharing. As an artist I’ve decided to make my own floater frames with basic equipment and so far they are turning out well with the help of your tutorials.
I particularly appreciated that you described many tips for accuracy in the construction process, such as double checking the angle measurement of the mitre saw with a carpenter's square and cutting one frame piece first and using it to set the measurements on the opposite side piece.
Oh yeah I like this wow what a Great looking frame .. floater frames are so Awesome and so wonderful to display on any type of Art works groovy cool share i enjoyed this immensely 🎉 🖼✌️🎨🎭
You have made my day . Wonderful work & finished product . Learned at least two little procedures which will save me lots of time & energy making my frames in future . Many thanks again .
this was so satisfying to watch. I appreciate every second of it. I hope one day I feel comfortable to use these tools to make floating frames for my paintings. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind comments. It’s not hard just keep it simple to start with and once you have confidence you can start experimenting with different types of frames.
@@DAH-q2f yes tools does help and make it a lot easier. You can buy cheap tools and skills can develop over time. Space to do the work is the hard part, I am lucky I have a garage.
Thanks! Great video with good tips. My husband really liked the frame strap you used!! We will get one for sure. Please pass on to your wife her painting is beautiful❤
@@weathersd yeah tools definitely helps. Maybe you can try with building a frame with trim molding and then you can cut the miters with a hand saw. Maybe I will do a video sometime on using trim molding for a frame, as you said not everyone has the tools.
The biscuit jointer jig is a lot more elegant than the usual big doodad that folks have for the table saw, so there's a good reason for doing it The Harki Way right there. All I have to do now is go out and buy a biscuit jointer... Cheers mate, good vid as always.
Haha… but abused one they are cheap as chips. Thanks for watching Mark appreciated, and the biscuit joiner jig is not my original idea been done by others.
@@LonghornWorkshop I used the usual big doodad for the table saw in my picture frame video, but I already had a table saw, and the doodad was far cheaper than a biscuit jointer. Now that I have a biscuit jointer I'll be trying this! Another great video Harki!
Beautiful, what perfection! Well done. PLEASE watch your fingers you don't want to loose them! Use a pusher rather than your hands, they are too precious. Tip, instead of cards use biscuits made for this job, cheap and so useful. Love your wife's artwork too! (tell her she got a compliment) 😀
@@MsLightspirit thanks for watching and the constructive critique. Yes you are right I do need to buy some spacers, they are handy. I will for sure let the wife know that she got a compliment from you. Thanks again!!
As someone who has had a table saw accident, watching you rip those boards turned my stomach. A push stick is way cheaper and less painful than a trip to the emergency room. Plus you get to keep your fingers!
I’d make this as perfect as you did but when putting the 4 screws in at the end I’d probably push them through the other side of the canvas by accident 😂. Great job.
Beautiful frame and great video. I had done one before cutting the L-shape out from a much thicker piece of wood, but simpler and cheaper just to attach two pieces as you did here. Subscribed!
@@ronaldhermanson2112 it’s a Porter cable biscuit jointer. To be honest any cheap biscuit joiner would work. You can find deals on Facebook marketplace
Harki, now that is one smart looking picture frame. I have an upcoming project for a friend, and this has given some good ideas on the corner joint re-enforcement! And btw, excellent work by your Mrs. That painting is actually more stunning that the frame, haha 😛
@@xjfella95 thanks I am not using and special light, just over head garage lighting. The miter saw come with a light but it’s just light and not a laser light.
Just bought that Bessey clamp for $30....it's awesome. Almost bought the extremely overpriced Wolfcraft one but luckily came to my senses. The MLCS Mearle is nice to but i think only does 90 degree glue ups. All Bessey clamps are top quality. (No, I'm not a Bessey sales rep) ; P
thanks for sharing! this is a gorgeous frame for a stunning painting 💖 and your jig for the splines is the perfect combo of simple and effective. my only gripe is that your voice is too quiet. don't be afraid to turn that volume up a little bit. looking forward to the next one.
Thank you very much and appreciate the feedback. It’s a constant battle to get the right volume level, you are correct though it was quite. Thanks again!!
@@manuelfhddhdghfgh it’s called a biscuit joiner. It’s not really for that use but can be used for cutting slots in frames. Search you tube on biscuit joiner and you will see that it’s for aligning and joining boards together. You can guy a cheap one and it will work just fine.
Very clean Harki, and that spline jig was genius. Shame your frame was upstaged by your wife's talent ;)
Lol thanks mate. I always say that the art work should always be the center stage and the frame is there to show it off.

Brilliant and simple way to build floating frames. The best one I've come across on UA-cam! That jig is genius!
Thank you appreciate you kind words.
It's so smart to pre-fix the trims inside the wider boards and then cut them together under the miter saw.
@@Josui1471 thanks and yes makes things a little easier
I thought that exactly! I watch several other videos and they do not proceed that way but it makes so much more sense.
@@kidnap2010 if you have never made a frame before than yes this is the best way to make it. Thanks for watching and commenting
@@LonghornWorkshop i never… Really bad a DIY but from here, with this shortcut technique, it seems possible and I will try that.

That biscuit cutter jig is genious. I always use a tablesaw jig to cut my splines and this looks way easier.
Thanks, it’s easier and quicker. Only down side is its limited in depth of cut
So helpful thank you for this video!

Very neat work!

Great work!

Great seeing the process, the frame looks amazing as does the painting!! Those mitres are pristine too! Nice work mate.
Cheers appreciate that.
As someone who has had a table saw accident, watching you rip those boards turned my stomach. A push stick is way cheaper and less painful than a trip to the emergency room. Plus you get to keep your fingers!
It was a sawstop saw. I would still probably use a push stick, though
Thanks for the advice, appreciate it.
Flesh sensing technology. Personally, id still use a push stick
Very first thing I noticed! And then I couldn’t concentrate on anything else
I’m so glad for you that, somehow, you managed to keep all your fingers by the end of the video.
