Allow the glue to cure and then sand, starting with 120 grit and working up to 400 grit. There is only one sander shown here, but Steve has a sander dedicated to each grit.

Steve has a retired friend who assembles his frame backs for him. However, all you need is some 1/8" lauan plywood and a small hinge if you wish to emulate his style, or you can use a sawtooth hanger and forget about the support leg entirely. Another nice touch provided by Steve's design is the sheet of custom printed paper inserted in each frame. He does this for two reasons: the first is that the frame looks better when displayed for sale with something in it, rather than left empty; the second is that he does not encounter problems with .copyrights and releases, which could happen were he to use a photograph.

Here is one of Steve's scrap-wood frames. He and my wife, Alice (and even many of you), fee! that there is no such thing as "scrap" wood, and this proves it.

There you have if! A very easy project that you can probably design with the tools you have on hand, and with whatever wood you can find lying around. Thanks for sharing, Steve!
