Steve Prescott's picture framing techniques features Wealden's exclusive new cutters

Steve Prescott, who writes regularly for British Woodworking magazine, has just completed an article on picture framing techniques using some of Wealden's new range of picture framing router cutters.

Steve used the Limone cutter (part number T3707)to make a frame in ash with walnut stringing detail and the Lanterns cutter (part number T3705) to make a smaller frame in American black walnut.  The Victoria cutter (part number T3713) made a small frame in rippled sycamore, while Steve used the Wave cutter (part number T3709) to make an attractive octagonal frame in oak.  Finally, using the Ripple cutter (part number T3711), Steve made a triple window picture frame in oak.

He also used some of Wealden's dowel drills to insert strengthening dowels into the mitred corners of the frame.
