5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshingly Relevant, 13 Mar 2008
By S. Morgan (Shropshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I've picked up a number of books on framing recently as I'm hoping to use bespoke framing to supplement my photography business. I found this one particularly useful, for two main reasons; it's up-to-date and it's written by a British author for a British audience. Not that I have anything against our American cousins, but it makes a very pleasant change to have a framing book use local terminology and link to local suppliers. It's not particularly in-depth, rather giving a fairly high-level view of quite a few aspects, but I learned something from every page.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, 25 Jan 2008
By R. A. Fisher (Cardiff) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Beautifully written and illustrated. A pleasure to read with loads of tips from someone who clearly takes enormous pride in their work. Covers framing from basics to more professional tooling - you couldn't ask for more - and all from a British point of view.

2.0 out of 5 stars Who's it for?, 11 Jan 2009
By D. Stoddart "darrill" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am not sure who this book if for. Most of the info on opening a framing business is pretty basic and would be obvious to someone about to take this route. There are insufficient tips in the text to advance the skills of someone already framing. And the text does not quite get specific enough for someone just starting. Nicely presented but not really worthwhile.
