INSTRUCTIONS

Make two photocopies of the pattern. Using spray adhesive, adhere one pattern to the wood selected for the frame and the other to the portrait piece. Cut out the oval frame pattern first, using the No. 5 blade with the table set at 30 degrees. Stain the front and back of the backer and the inside cut of the frame.

Square the saw table with the blade and install the spiral blade. Cut the portrait to shape. Then remove the patterns using mineral spirits.

Stack and glue the backer, portrait piece and frame together. Clamp and allow the glue to set. After the clamps have been removed, reset the table to 30 degrees and, using the No. 5 blade, bevel the four outer sides. You can either attach a hanger to the back or use a picture stand for table display. Enjoy!! ^
