Nice frame! A shame about the sock!
I like the effect of the two tone slips. Smart idea!

A great job David, can you explain how you made the "tray" that the sock sits in?

It's a coved box design (or tapered box) see this topic:
http://theframersforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=4156
I cut mine by hand.
There is more than one way to create depth in a frame and I know that this method is not to everyone's liking, but I like it! I first got to know about this method from this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fAceyYn5 ... ure=relmfu there are 4 videos in total.
(BTW, can anyone tell me how to embed a youtube video into a post?)
The box has an middle, inner and outer layer. More photos:

In hindsight, I think I'll keep some brown picture cord in stock for furture jobs!

Sure! Copy the youtube link - for example
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTH0Ls91 ... ults_video
Then, click the youtube button above the reply box to get this [
. youtube][/youtube]
Delete all up to and including the equals symbol in the youtube link and cut and paste what's left between the two sets of square brackets, do a preview before submitting.

This is the full URL of the YouTube clip
[code]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTH0Ls91 ... ults_video [/code]
Remove everything up to ind including the first = (equals sign)
zTH0Ls91Z6s&playnext=1&list=PLC2F298F22E38727D&feature=results_video
Then remove everything from, and including, the first & (ampersand) to the end
zTH0Ls91Z6s
Highlight this and click the [youtube] button and you'll have embedded the video clip.
[youtube]zTH0Ls91Z6s[/youtube]
Watch out though, test first with [Preview], as not all YouTube videos can be embedded.

Whoa! I didn't know about that highlighting thing
But it seems to work with or without deleting the ampersand and all after???

The highlight thing works with most of the BBCode buttons ([URL], [Img], etc)
