Review on DCT Picture Photo Framing Miter by Ryan Larson

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Cannot be used with 45 degree corner joints without spacers.

There is a round coined slot just off the inside corners that prevents the frame from aligning 45 degree cuts. One of the boards in the corner slides into the relief, but the other cannot. There may be a reason for this relief, but it makes the tool very difficult for me. I cut out four pieces of very thin cutting board mat and folded them at the corners to hide the relief, it worked well. In addition, it is very durable. I cut four sticks in half because I collect smaller boxes.

Pros
  • EASY TO USE: By measuring diagonals you can make adjustments to align things; 4 poles can be used to clamp anything smaller than 23.5" x 23.5" (59.7cm x 59.7cm); Can use 8 sticks (4 sets of 2 sticks connected with a brass connector) to connect anything 25.75" x 25.75" (65.4cm x 65.4cm) and over clamp You can also mix these two elements to get any rectangular size in between.
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
