Really like the frame, better than the ones I have done in the past. Two thoughts though. First, when sanding, avoid doing the joint edges (where the 45 degree joints meet). If your saw cuts a true 45, then any sanding will change that, making a rough looking joint. Second, when you cut out the notch/groove for the mirror to sit in, I would do a double cut, rather than have to do the chisel work. It's cleaner and quicker. I know this is not designer piece, but well finished will look good in most settings. Keep up the good work!

Also, I would add a few dabs of clear silicone caulking on each edge, just to secure the mirror, unless your cuts are so precise that they mirror cannot shift in the frame.

Wow! That’s awesome!!

Thank you for educating me.

This is what we call an actual frame 🎉👏

Omg! That red stain on your table freaked me out when you were using the chisel!! I thought you cut your fingers! 😂😂😂 Thank you for the video! 😁 👍🏼

Nice job! Fyi the method you used to chisel the rest of the groove would be easier if you lower the table saw blade to the thickness of the mirror and run the board through it would have a much cleaner cut and alot faster.

Exactly the info I needed. Great video!

very nice. I tried the same notch method with a circular saw. It did not go well.

good job!

Would you PLEASE roll your thumb under the palm of your hand when cutting a miter. I was given that hint by a wood working teacher that had half a thumb. You could have saved time by using the the fence and setting the saw blade shallow to clean the scrap out of the rabbet I’d glue the joints so they don’t move with humidity Finished project looked fantastic

Can the local hardware store cut them for you? Not sure where you live but Home Depot has cutting stations in the store; you can also ask someone to help you cut the wood.

I don't really understand how you attach the corners? You put some degrees to nail it or just straight?

Hello, I have a 35.75” X 48.5” mirror. How do I know what size frames to use as I bought two 1X4X8ft and 1X4X10ft boards and made two-49 inch boards and two-37 inch boards which were too small. Any suggestions?

@@AppalachianHomeCo why not cutting the groove more towards the middle and just sliding the mirror glass in the grooves, then fixing the 4 sides with the glass already in? i think this would be the fastest way. the mirror glass would stay secured within the grooves themselves and you wouldn't need to add extra wood on the back to secure the glass.

Come on now, you can get a miter saw new for like $300 and probably used on FB marketplace for half that. This video is for people who do woodworking. I would bet that 99% of people who have an inclination to do something like this have the tools they need to do it so it would be ridiculous for her to spend time on that in the video. And I must add, these videos she makes are free. You’re not paying for them to be so demanding of the product she put out for your benefit for no reward is ridiculous. She was very gracious in her response to you. In the future, one should pose the question “hey, I was just curious, can this be done without power tools?”
