Do a search. I have made one and it was discussed before.

Here is what I wrote in 2003

I made one. And I am very happy with the results.

The frame I used was a cheap unfinished picture frame from a craft store. Do not think "school slate". All you are looking for is a squareish looking frame with wide 1" - 1 1/2" borders. You will be making your own "slate" so it really doesn't matter what is inside the frame when you buy it.

I did have to belt sand the frame so that it was thin enough to to allow the clothes pins to clip to the top edge.

I'll PM the more intimate details if needed. What do you need to know?
