[Thursday] Mats, Frames, and Museum Funds

[Randall Snow]

Guys,

We actually have a professional mat cutting tool and framing tools at our
disposal.  Our Steam Up chef, Steve, has all the equipment from a framing
business sitting in his basement and has been wanting to help us with this
very project for years.  He already has a pile of frame stock that was
bought at an auction for us to use and mat scraps as well.  I'll inquire
with him as to how big the whole setup is and we can find a spot for a nice
winter project.
