[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 397202, member: 9240"] The mounting to foam core is a part of the framing process. It replaces the backing I get with the frame, as does the mounting hardware. I use a Logan Point Driver to hold the foam core in place... [MEDIA=youtube]0WdGlkIPp3I[/MEDIA] After this I seal the back with paper backing and add framing wire so it's gallery-ready. If I'm selling just prints I do a simple tape mount to a cardboard backing with a hinged white mat and put it in a sleeve. This could be stuck directly into a frame or the photo removed and remounted. It's cost me a bunch in materials to get the framing thing going, but all totaled it's about what it would have cost me for one custom framing job, so between the stuff in the gallery and now on my walls I'm way ahead of the game. My wife says I should do it as a side business, but I'm not ready to start making the frames. [/QUOTE]
