    Very helpful tutorial! I didn't realize that frame pieces were available separately like that. That is very nice to know, as I plan to be framing a lot of things in the future!

    these all come in 1" increments, but i've used them in the past and they look good and are easy to put together:

    If you have access to a table saw you can easily make your own "L" profile sticks for framing. Added bonus if you have a chop saw as well. I banged out 30 frames in a couple days. I used band clamps and glue to for attaching.

    This is my next goal.. to make my own frames. It'll cut my costs down alot too.

    I like to float some of my posters as well.. I only frame the ones I want to protect from people who like to touch posters with their greasy hands..

    Heres a few floaters of mine... clips are from Target in the Home Improvement section..
