    Came here from Baumgartner's recent framing to learn more about this process. He had nothing but positive things to say about this process. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

      Good to see the Internet's potential realized: the creation, preservation, and dissemination of knowledge, not just cat videos and a cacophony of opinion.

    so pleased you did this, I've been looking at Dutch frames for so long now wondering what the device looked like that made them but I always fell short of intellectual time! thanks for doing.

    Damn I wanna see more of the development process to reverse engineer this lost craft. Thanks to Baumgartner I know about this at all :D

    Beautifully done. Hats off to M.I.A. for encouraging individual visions. That's art's fertility ground. I'm sincerely impressed. Hope more institutes of art follow your example.

    this incredible! for once youtube leads me to treasure. I'm currently trying to find a frame that will fit my artwork and as a custom framer I am so tempted to actually take a wood working course and carve what I want myself. This man and his ingenuity is making me thing anything is possible!

    Really nicely done, Kurt. Am glad to see this moulding being made of wood and not compo from molds.

    Both the machine and this video are very well done. I would love to see this in person next time I am in the cities. Is the machine and process publicly available for viewing? It looks like Kurt did an amazing job with the details and research on this project.

    I would love to know about how the device creates the vertical or horizontal oscillations of the whole workpiece. This video is nicely shot, but it doesn't explain the mystery cited in its opening.

      +Lawman212 Look up "Moxon's Waving Engine".

      +Lawman212 You're welcome. It looks as though the machine he built is the most complicated "Roubo" version, but there are much simpler "machines" that can be built with very little equipment and materials.

      @Lawman212 8 лет назад

      +sooth15 when I get home tonight, I hope to find some information on how the oscillations in the machine are "programmed". For example, does the machine follow a template or gear?

    This is a old way of making frame profiles in a new-old way. Fantastic for me as a restorer. (y)

    At one time , here , n the u.s.a. In Connecticut there was a clock company that went by the name of C.E. Brown that produced these mounding S for their clocks . Also there is a young man in Germany that does these mounding S for sale too. You would think with the computer modeling machines we have out today this particular art form would be available again .

    Without aiming to diminish your labor and research you should know that Jonathan Thornton recreated the same machine several years ago at the Buffalo State University college of Oneonta.

      +pha4 Yes I have read this paper many times . This was helpful to understand the basic principals and history. Thank you , Kurt Nordwall

    interesting movie and anoying computer music in the backgroung. Why the producer could't bring some classic guitarist and record something ? and why music has to be so loud?
