Default bringing back the old thread

I always had the idea to frame my SGC graded Cobbs, even more after seeing this thread. I even bought the 8x10 months ago. But I'm too cheap to pay someone to do it, and too lazy to do it myself.

That is, until I had to do some matting for a coach's gift (again, too cheap to pay $60 for two simple mats and too impatient to wait a week). Here's my first crack... $45 for a mat cutter, $16 for mat boards (I still have left overs) and $17 for the frame. When I get some free time, I'll redo the outer mat as the card cutouts aren't quite as clean as I'd like, but it'll do for now.
