" My name is Amitavh Bhattacherji. I'm speaking on behalf of Expert Village and I represent my company Abstract Frames and Supplies, Private, Limited; Calcutta, India. I made the frame, cut the back, cut the glass, cut the mount; my picture is ready. How to complete the picture: This is my frame. This is the glass; it's been cleaned inside. The picture slips into the and fits into the fillet of the frame. The back then comes as the next part item. It slips into, again, slips into the fillet of the frame. And this clip, as I had said, which are shot by a gun into the frame, helps to hold the glass, the picture, and the back to the frame. Inishliad had shown you a neat back. But just to explain the thing, I have cut open the frame. Now, one of the biggest advantages of this type of framing is you see how simple it is to take out the picture. Take out the picture, clean the glass and put back the picture. So this is a very unique method of framing. There are no nails. No hammering. Anybody could open the picture. You can even change your picture when you want to change; after sometime if you get bored of your picture you can change your picture. As simple as this, how simple it is to just open these pins and you can take out the back. Once again, the picture again you will have to be a little careful with the glass so that you don't injure your hands. This, we recommend, you have to take off so that it's easier for you. Since I'm very used to it I can do it easily. But you'll have to be very careful while taking off the glass. And you see the glass has slipped out. So have all of the three pieces out. This is the frame. Thank you."
