Framing odd sizes

Any good sources for odd sized frame pieces?  I've got a panoramic print that's 7.325"x~44".  It's got glass with a plastic clip frame but I want to get some type of edge frame to hold it together better.  As narrow as the print is it tends to warp even with the glass over it.

There are several craft type stores where I live that do custom framing, but they are severely over priced.

Ryan, you could go with plak mount.

Here's a site for you to check out.

Odd sizes are always costly, unless you know someone who could keep the cost of materials down.

To to the hardware store and buy moulding. Cut it, stain it, done.

when you're in the home improvement store, pay attention to who is looking at the expensive wood. Ask them if they could make a few picture frames for you and offer them something like a buck or buck-fifty a linear foot (12x12 would cost $4) I met a guy like that that would make frames for karen's oil paintings for a buck-fifty a linear foor.

Metal frames have been available for years as separate pieces.  You buy them in pairs.  As long as you mat to thier standard lengths, you have no problem. 

For example if you wanted to frame a 6x30 inch pano, you could mat to 10x36 and buy a set of 10in sides and a set of 36in sides. 

The problem is that glass can get very expensive.
