Make a double border, and swap the picture ... Below please find a video that might be helpful when making and adjusting your borders/mats. The object was to show how to quickly make a double mat, and after printing, change the images and not have to remake the mats. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI_HRjl9414&feature=youtu.beHave fun.

It's faster with metric units  http://youtu.be/cYPiboGpiUMTerry PS. Don't forget to set to HD 1080p using the cog wheel at the end of the time line and use full screen |

How can that be, Terry? That would be like you and I driving to Yorkshire, to buy a terrier, and some pudding, but because you drive on the wrong side of the road, you will arrive sooner?  Fred |

Hello Both
In my sailing days change over to metric had it's disadvantages.
Anchor chain 30 fath long marked at 10 and 20 fath metric had to assume 2m = 1 fath and to hell with the error.
A great thing about the Nautical mile was one deg course error = 1 nautical mile in 60 so it was possible to work our courses to steer in your head. This was in the days of sailing by your nautical pants, GPS what is that?

Really,
Jeff, I cannot fathom the course you have taken this debate.
I guess I am out of my depth, and am having trouble keeping an even keel.
As I age, I find that I spend more time on the poop deck, and my jib is dangling.
Suffering from JD, (Jib Dysfunction) people have offered remedial advice.
The best of which is that new pill Jib-agra. When in port, and doing maintenance on your sails, add one Jibagra tablet to the sail wash water.
The next day, your Jib will be out in front of the boat, proudly cutting the wind.

Industry-specific product sizing Metric opposed artisans and practitioners may be concerned by certain dimensions being less memorable with metric units. As the table below shows, industries have adapted to such concern by rounding dimensions in metric units: Industry Common reference Metric reference Carpentry 4 ft × 8 ft plywood 1219 mm × 2438 mm (exact) 1200 mm × 2400 mm (new Europe) "2 by 4" 50.8 mm × 101.6 mm (exact) 50 mm × 100 mm (Europe) (but planing makes all beams 3~8 mm narrower) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metrication_opposition |

From that article in Wikipedia This article has multiple issues. Please help improve it or discuss these issues on the talk page.
This article needs additional citations for verification. (September 2011)
The neutrality of this article is disputed. (July 2011) I buy metric sized wood here and it really is metric. The engineering company I worked for went metric in 1970, logical for electrical machines sold to a world market and designed using metric units. That article really is "old hat".  Terry |

Depends on Location. Europe standard, American very large  Recently our photo club went metric. Mounts 50 x 40. Trouble is all frames appear to be imported from ?far east at 16 x 20 imperial. so pics do not fit frames. Jeff |
