HOW TO DO PICTURE FRAMES
-
Picture
frames may be welded in a picture frame clamp or
in a home made wooden jig.
If the pressure applied to the picture
frame joint is tight the heat produced will set
the glue in about 3 seconds.
-
Hold electrode feet
across the glue line, usually in the medium
or large gap position, and apply the electronic
heat. Do
not over heat the joint - it will hold better if
heated for a short time, 3 to 5 seconds.
NOTE:
The above method of welding a picture frame is
satisfactory, in so far as setting the joint.
However, we feel that the additional wooden
spline or dowel will add to the strength of the joint
and will insure better squaring of the frame during
fabrication.
