Q: I need to shorten the sides of a metal picture frame. This requires a smooth 45 degree angle cut. I own an electric miter saw with a skill saw blade but it is generally used for cutting wood 2x4s which don't require precision. I wonder if they make a fine toothed metal cutting blade, or if this is not the right tool for the job. I have a hacksaw but those things don't get much precision...
A: The problem with using a miter saw is the lubrication. You absolutely need lubrication. I'm a full-time contractor and have the best equipment and I tried it and ended up taking the frames to a frame shop and letting them make the cuts.Their equipment is specifically designed to cut the metal. My local frame shop charged me $2.50 per frame leg, or $10 per frame. It's simply not worth the hassle of cutting them myself. That's my advice.
I need to get one that fts 2 4x6 photos. I've looked at Things Remembered and Linen N Things, JC Penny, Herbergers, and Dillard's. I like the Kate Spade Cabo Isabella frame, but it's not a double...Sorry to be asking this, but I don't know where else to look?!?! If anyone knows of a great frame...
