I think the arrow is stamped in the wrong direction.

Yes indeed! Now what was wrong with the late night framer who put it on.............backwards! The wire quickly told the story.....next! Have a great framing day and bunches of business!

If that is the worst thing that happens this season, you are going to be fine!

I just made a frame to the inside dimension:sorrow:

Greg, been busy so I'm just now catching up on Framers Corner.

It is now late at night and I have some more framing to do, so I'm probably not thinking, but I have a question. :sleeping: What is wrong with making a frame to the inside dimensions? I just finished a 10 piece corporate job that wanted the frame to the outside frame dimensions, and making sure I factored in the rabbet space and the allowance almost gave me grey hair.:sleeping:

Greg I don't feel so bad now! I cut a mat the other day using the inside dimension as the outside dimension, talk about being upset! Glad I am not the only one doing these things :laughing:

Without knowing if FACTS standards are being used to guide us, I suppose you could be referring to making it an Exact rabbet dimension (instead of adding the allowance), or even Sight size.

But since most people cut to "inside dimension", I'm guessing you mean: the mat opening size?

 

[Gregory K. Norris CPF]

Yep, David, I meant that I cut the frame to the mat window size. Impatient to finish for the day, I looked at the order on the computer screen and picked up the dimensions at the wrong spot on the order.

It was a good reminder to follow established procedures. Cutting a frame to the incorrect size is one of the better things that can happen when framing while distracted. It is far better--and safer--to work from a cut list without distraction.

I still say, the round holes are too round.
