I just bought a new compound mitre saw and would like to make a frame for a mirror. I don't own a router so I'm unsure about how to mount the mirror to the frame. I know I can mount it to a board and then nail the board to the frame but are there any other suggestions.

thanks:confused:

There are probably other places, too, but you can buy picture frame molding. It will have the rabbet cut in it already.

Hope this helps.
