The prices at the frame shop include the labor to put your stuff in it, overhead, etc. You may need a miter saw, router, frame clamps, glue, spray paint. You can probably buy ready-made satin black frames much cheaper if you can use a standard size.
Wood recommendations for picture frame to be sprayed satin black?
After seeing the prices at a frame shop, I'm making a float frame for the customer of one of my pictures.
It's going to be spray painted satin black. Is there a reason not to use the maple I already have? The cost of the wood doesn't matter for such a small amount.
This is probably something I'll be doing a fair amount, so I'd like to streamline the process as much as possible.
TIA
