Do you know how to use a router? Home Depot sells picture frame pieces that already have a groove cut. You just need to miter the 45 cuts for the corners.
Thank you

The router is my favorite power tool. Your best bet is to buy a router table. It is a metal frame (think table saw) that the router attaches to from below. You will be able to use a fence to guide your wood over the cutter and make precise grooves. If you don't go this way you can clamp your work piece to a table and use a guide to help you make straight cuts but the clamps can get in your way. It really depends on how much you plan to use your router.
Thank You. !! This is the best answer I have gotten ! I like making things with my hands ... I know I could go " buy " premade , but , anyone can do that .
Thank you so much !
