5.0 out of 5 stars I'm so glad I found this one., 13 Mar 2001
By A Customer
This is a very comprehensive book. It has more ways to join a frame than I knew which equips you with being able to deal with all kinds and sizes of jobs. Similarly comprehenive in matting and mounting and many other techniques, how to deal with a wide variety of things to frame including fabrics and objects. This isn't just a few ideas put toghether to sell a book, this is a life experience given away. A very good and useful book.

By A Customer
Ken Oberrecht not only gives good clear instructions on the how to's of framing but also what tools and supplies you will need and where to find them. I hit gold of the first try. Thanks Mr. Oberrecht and Amazon.com. Grace M.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for a beginner., 25 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This book gives the reader a lot of good information so they can start framing their own art work with little or no prior experience. The author gives lots of specific examples of tools and materials. He tells you where to get them and which ones work the best.

Feel a bit fed up about this purchase. The photographs are mostly in black and white and hopelessly outdated. Read more
