Re: Looking for narrowed frame pic's

Just remember frames 47-53/54 are shaped like the letter A frames not straight and square with each other they started the straight frames in 55 so when you cut the back out look at it first and tack entire frame to a jig first or you'll be sorry later. If it were a straight and square frame you wouldn't have as much problem cutting it and moving the center section in and squaring it up but our frames are cut and made like a A narrow in the front and wide in the back. Just FYI
