Assembling the frame

Today my dad and I were finally able to assemble the frame that I finished a couple weeks ago.  First I put two coats of glue on each of the miters.  One soaks into the wood the second holds the miters together.  Next we had to pop the glass into the dado and hold it from coming out or cracking.  once it was set we put the band clamp around it to hold it tight while the glue dried.  We made sure the miters were tight and then measured to check if it was square.  Tomorrow we will put the jersey on the back and put the back on.
