Mike,
I have found that frames don't respond well in general to being dropped.

I think it looks better this way. I couldn't separate the pics more in the new frame as they have the original tape still intact, keeping them together.

Those all look great! Perfect pieces to compliment a man cave, and smartly done at a fraction of the cost for professional framing.

Mike, nice job. I have been doing matting and framing for my own stuff also. Once I found out how much they wanted and how easy it was to do. Recently did my first shadow box with a circular mat cutter.
