Rating:
Summary: This book is worth its weight in gold!
Review: As a beginning framer, I found this book to be a wealth of valuable information on equipment and techniques. It covers every aspect of framing and answered most, if not all, of my questions. This is a wonderful resource for anyone interested in learning the art of framing.

Summary: A lot of money for a little book
Review: This being the only book on the subject that was on the bookshelf in the brick&morter store, I was very disappointed in the author's handling of certain key aspects of the subject, that I felt, as a novice were very important.Specificly alternative sources of suitable supplies and materials.

Summary: This book is worth its weight in gold!
Review: This is simply the best book currently out there for the do-it-yourself framer. In particular, after looking at dozens of books in libraries and bookstores, it's the only book I found that really gives satisfactory attention to archival considerations, pros and cons of different methods of mounting artwork, and protection of the framed materials from moisture in the environment (a real area of concern if you're living in an extremely high-humidity region, as I am!). After an hour or so of browsing through the book, I already felt I had gotten my money's worth in answered questions and useful information. Everything the beginner needs to know, plus a little more in-depth information for those of us who have already learned the basics. Recommended!
