foam biseaux mount (deep bevelled mount)

Post by cliff »

Hi Guys

can anyone explain to me how to create a foam biseaux mount (French Matt)?

I have the strips of foam bevelled and the coloured tape but not sure how to get the strips the right length to match up with the mount bevel -and how/where to apply the tape.
Many thanks.
