New!   How To Use The Professional Picture Frame Underpinner

  Here's How it Works...
   
To insert the v-nail cartridge pull on the green cable.   Then slide the cartridge in facing the right direction.   Slowly let go of the cable. That will lock the cartridge in place
     
Cut the sections of moulding you plan on joining and using a band clamp make sure the corners and nice and even.  Then pick one of the sections of moulding and with a pen/pencil mark on the end where you would like the v-nails to go. In mouldings like the one shown, you can insert more than one v-nail on the same place to stack them and make a stronger join.   Place the marked section of frame against the rail on the underpinner table.   Align the first mark with the small slot. That is where the v-nails are going to go thru to enter the moulding.   When you're happy with the alignment slide the back stop against the center stop and tighten the nob.
             
     
Now slide the frame (and railing) back and align the second line with the slot.   And then slide the first stop against the center one and tighten it in place.   Place the second moulding section in place.   The distance between the moulding and the presser should be 30mm.
             
     
Now pull the rail and moulding until they stop in place. And remember that you are inserting 3 v-nails at this spot.   Hold the moulding so that the corners are touching and there is no gab between them. Then with your foot push down on the pedal. You will be able to hear the v-nail slide into the frame. Do that three times. The v-nails will easily stack upon each other.   Now slide the the rail and moulding back until they stop in place and press on the pedal. But this time only once since this is that thin section of the moulding.   Here is now it is going to look in the back of the moulding.
             
           
Repeat the process for the other 3 corners and your frame is now joined and ready.
