Glossary Of Picture Framing Terms
[1] |
Point driver A manual tool used in fitting images to picture frames. The gun is very similar to a heavy duty stapler, but the points (also called pins or tabs) are ejected outward from the vertical end, rather than downward from the base.
The point driver is placed flush against the backing of the framed image, with the vertical edge pressed against the exposed rabbet of the picture frame. When the trigger is squeezed, a small metal tab is driven partway into the wood, holding the contents of the frame in place.
Also called a pinner gun, the points may be flexible, and folded back to change the frame contents, or rigid for more permanent framing projects. |
