I wish the world had one norm size.

There's one really bad thing about buying something in the US - the formats are different, so I always have problems with finding the right picture frames etc.

The greatest current problem is a large poster with 8 signatures (yum!), an expensive collectible that I wanted to hang up in a protected corner. Its size is 102 x 69 cm. The largest German standard frame is 100 x 70 cm. If I buy a frame that really, really fits to the poster size (including a passe-partout), it will cost me almost as much as the poster itself *palms face*

Therefore, a poll...

make my own frame by picking up the necessary materials and measuring it out. Or cutting off the bottom piece of the frame and adjusting it to make it longer and thus able to house the picture. Or seeing if I had a friend/acquaintance who would be willing to make me the frame in exchange for something I could do for them.
