If you use both rigid and flexible points when securing artwork
into a wood frame, you probably get tired of switching between point drivers.
Wouldn’t it be nice if there were one tool that could handle both kinds of
points?
Now there is.
American Frame now carries the Logan Dual PointDriver Elite.
It’s
designed to fire stacks of either rigid or
flexible inserts into all types of wood frame moldings and features a tension
adjustment for harder woods. It makes securing your art stack or canvas into
wood frames a breeze, no matter which kind of points you have on hand. And its
comfort-grip handle ensures your hands won’t tire, even during marathon framing
sessions.
So, now that you can use
either type of points, which should be your go-to? It depends on your plans for
the art. We’ve also added Logan rigid and flexible points as well.
Rigid Points — Rigid points provide a more permanent
solution to assembling a frame. These are
more often used with long-term permanent artwork and often feature backing
paper to finish a frame and cover the points. But if you plan on reframing your
piece, these may not be your best bet. They can’t be bent, like flexible points
can, so pliers must be used to remove the entire point from the frame itself.
Flexible Points — These points allow the user to bend them
after a frame has been assembled, so the artwork can be removed without removing
the point from the wood. Flexible points can be bent by hand and then bent back
into place when the frame is reassembled. If you’re new to framing, and want
more leeway to change the framing treatment after finishing it, or if you plan to
eventually reframe the piece, opt for flexible points.
Can’t decide between the two? Stock up on both.
The Logan Dual Point Driver Elite will let you switch between them
effortlessly, for any framing job.
Does this work on any wood frame?
