Frame Scale
1. When using the frame scale – keep the following things in mind.
a. Always place the top of the molding Up
b. The rabbit of the molding should be facing you as you makes the cuts
c. Ensure the correct blade is in the saw
d. After making the cut, it is best to wait for the blade to stop moving before lifting the saw up through the molding
e. Keep in mind to check that the cuts will be made at the desired angle before cutting
f. It is best to measure two or three times before cutting to ensure the desired length will be achieved
Notes on Framing – When putting together frames, it is best to attach one long side to one short side and then repeat this for the other long and short. Doing this will decrease the possibility for mistakenly attaching the wrong sides together.
