Step 4Cut the Mounting Board
The mounting board is the bottom layer of the frame. This is what the picture is mounted to and it should be stiff and strong enough to support the picture. Chip board around 1/8" thick is ideal, though acid free chip board would be even better if it is available (usually only from framing stores).
The mounting board should be cut to OD dimensions. Measure and mark out the cut lines on the board and, using a straight edge cut the board using the box cutter. Be sure to put something down to protect your work area when cutting. See the pictures with the next step for an example of how to make this cut.
