I assume it's at least a wood frame and not metal.
Its wood with metal hangers on the back of the frame to hang.

A little better than nails :lol:
not really

if you don't like my nails.........you could put some c-clamps on it:

I’m so used to seeing them with these black frames that i can’t imagine them without them now lol. I think they suit the pieces well.

Only change I would request are to use the recently invented beehive hangers.

also, not sure if it's been mentioned.......but wood panels tend to warp over time. Actually, it's more like they "bow outward" from the middle.

I really don't like to stock them any longer.

I know a few folks have posted warped wood panels on this forum. I still remember the Horkey true grit that was warped after a few months. I've yet to hear of any Sperry panels warping though. I've had Tethys since 2015 and so far no warping,. Maybe the frame is keeping it from warping.

never thought 2023 would also be the year Sperry panels come crashing down in value due to warping issues but hey, here we are.

FYI ., I'm a painter and I know this to be true...
1/4" plywood always bows out if one side of the wood is unsealed.
Paintings made on plywood always need to be painted or covered with a sealer
or the reverse side if you want to keep them flat
Once they are bowed out , now sure what you can do

I got one of those Horkey True Grit wood panels from the Mondo drop and it warped almost instantly when I got it because the air is so dry up here in the winter. It happened literally within days of getting it. It warped almost 3/4 of an inch. I actually measured it with a tape measure. I sent it back to Mondo for a refund because I didn't know what else I could do with it being that warped.

Somebody probably bought it at one of their flat file sales.
