My wife needs some pictures framed.....
I too have a miter saw.I have a miter saw you can borrow![]()

What I don't have is the picture frame molding.
I looked into stock molding at the Warrenton Home Depot and they have nothing for a picture frame. Associate was dumbfounded when I asked for picture frames or molding for same.
Youngest artistic daughter bought a canvas several years ago at Hobby Lobby and made a nice painting for my wife. Wife wants it framed.
I've made everything way more complicated than it should be..lol. I thought 200' would last the last time.. this will be the third run.You just like making this complicated don't ya lol.
Nice turn around on the tooling though! And with getting knives cut it makes future runs much simpler....though also reduces the excuses for not making "just a couple more" in 6 months
My wife has been on me to make more picture frames for out house but I've been avoiding making any more picture frame moulding. Partially because it's a pain to make onna shaper with the design I came up with, and partially because I didn't want to have a knife ground.
I broke down today and called my knife supplier. With any luck I'll have more stuff added my never ending list when the new knife shows up.
Edit to add, this would be great to run on my 4 side moulder if I had worked on it and it was functioning.

I was blown away when @don long casually dropped "So, I called my neon guy" in a post a few years back.
Now, here you are with "I called my knife guy" for a custom planer knife.
What's next?![]()


Y’know, I don’t live far from @larry4406I was joking about the saw, I'll run an extra stick of moulding for you. 210' isn't any more work than 200.


The angled rabbet for the glass/picture on the knives is what through me off. Thanks for the pictures to show how it's angled off of the wall.
Once I finish these cabinets I intend to use up some of the scraps taking over my shop for picture frames and cutting boards. Thanks for all of the inspiration.




Shenandoah Planing Mill can make you whatever you need. It's likely not cheap for a few pieces unless it's already made in their inventory.
WOW!@larry4406 did you notice the new 2026 tax assessments? I about choked. My place had a 65% jump.
I'm expecting a millage rate reduction, to match and frankly will be really irritatied if they don't.WOW!
I just looked on-line. Ours had almost 22% increase. My friend in Marshall, his place went up 35%.
My wife had told me that our monthly payment had gone up due to tax escrow increase.
I wonder if the assessment will jack up again when I get the final inspection on the master bath addition.
How are you planning on obtaining a rate reduction?I'm expecting a millage rate reduction, to match and frankly will be really irritatied if they don't.

County hiked the tax rate this past summer to meet their budget from what little read this morning.
I went and looked on-line and pulled the tax data into excel. Several years there were no change for me. We bought the place in 2014. Wish my income rose like the tax graph. The early spike and reduction was when we demo'd the garage and had it taken off the tax roll; didn't last long.I assume they will reduce the rate since (also a assumption) the entire county assessment likely went up by 30-40%. They did the same last time, though the county wide assessment went up 20+% and the rate dropped less than the increase (shocker). Though they increased the rate every year after so the rate in 2025 was the same as 2021.
I disputed the 2016 assessment, and managed a 50% reduction of the assessment increase. Not sure how likely that is this time.

We are rural (you were here) and not a lot of comparable homes as we are not in a subdivision.

"It is not the destination but the journey."my wife declared the house will never be finished (which is accurate)
Often, the journey IS the destination."It is not the destination but the journey."
Sorry I missed this.
These will likely get zinsser BIN, shellac based primer unless I have some precat left. BiN seals everything including pine knots.
So you have a knife guy and I am excited about finally getting a 1/2" shank routerI assumed everyone had a knife guy? If don't you should get one..
I've known Neil for about 7 years. https://www.instagram.com/mttoolco?igsh=MTVnaXp4azgxM2U3dA==
This was the first knife he ground for me (which happens to be the panel mould profile of the wainscoting)![]()




would you mind sharing prices for heads like those? I have no clue what to expect, primarily because I have no clue about quality, etc.


We learned pretty quick to always remove the canopy cover at night in the desert. Even the daytime can get crazy. Every time we've been to Willow Springs there's at least one team chasing their Easy Up across the paddock.
