The Framers Forum

I've a client coming in to discuss a stained glass panel that he would like framed. As this is a new to me, I'm curious as to if there are any special considerations I need to allow for for such a project.

I've looked at a few videos online, and a couple seem to use channeled frames to hold the glass. I'm hoping this isn't the norm, as I'm not yet a dab hand at routing - unless you can readily buy pre-channeled mouldings.
