After carefully measuring and tracing the patterns for the needed cuts, a drill was used to outline the cuts as a guide for the jigsaw blade.  The edges of the cuts were lightly sanded to smooth the surface.  On the backside of the frame a router was used to trim a 1/2″ outline around each opening to create a compartment in order to place photographs and to nest backing ensuring a flat, neat surface.

The next steps will be to create a backing to hold photographs using RevolutionPly® plywood and to attach latches to hold the backing in place.

See the pictures below of the progress and check back to see the next steps on our family tree collage frame.
