Rhymenoceros Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Thanks guys. If anybody wants the links for where I got the frames and acrylic, just shoot me a PM. Not quite as "archival" but got the job done on a budget for a custom size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhymenoceros Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Looking forward to what Projekt's looks like! I've learned a lot about framing in the past few years, as I have been selling my photography at various art festivals and markets locally. That method (for the EoW print) was what I did in my early days when budget was the main concern getting my work out there to the public. And of course I shoot in 16x9 format so the frame sizes HAD to be custom. I was always the kind of kid that would take something apart to see how it worked and then put it back together. I've swapped hard drives that are difficult to get to (think old iMacs) and replaced easy to intermediate car parts with no experience other than youtube videos. If that's the kind of person you are, I would highly recommend giving framing a shot if it interests you at all. I purchased a mat cutter awhile back off Craigslist, but it doesn't go big enough for this project - otherwise it would have had a fancy ol' mat too. TLDR: "Looking forward to what Projekt's looks like!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLDR: "Looking forward to what Projekt's looks like!" My brain works exactly opposite of yours. I see a puzzle, and my brain overloads. If I took something apart, chances are it isn't getting put back together, much less the way it was, hahaha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stark Resilient Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I was always taking things apart and putting them back together when I was like 16-20. Now that I'm 24, I just go with it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nexus Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 East of West round up: 1. Finally got all the pieces to my framing job in. I have experience with framing and so I ordered a custom size clear acrylic piece for the front and the custom cut metal black sectional frame from 2 separate places. Since it was an odd size, i went with no mat, but the acrylic blocks UV. Didn't want to spend a ton on it. Used a free piece of scrap foam core for backing from work. Total framing cost: $64.00 including shipping from 2 sources. Already hung above the bed (great girlfriend for allowing it ) 2. New East of West this week! 3. With the announcement Hickman and Dragotta will be at c2e2, my con plans for this year have changed. I will likely attend at least Saturday, though I wish I could Friday. Poster looks great framed up! Good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
