This is a quick project to build a frame to house a fish print painting for my Mom. The frame made from Sapele with Maple keys in the mitered corners. I tried to keep the wood as thin as possible for this frame keep the focus on the artwork it contains. The frame has a fingernail edge profile achieved by using a portion of a 3/4" roundover router bit.
