The wrong technique, but it works for me....

I hold one end of course, and the other is on the edge of the painting. Well, actually the end of the dowel is past the edge of the painting, so only the side of it is touching the edge. Other than once, when I wasn't used to it and it slipped, it has worked for me. This "dowel only" is due to my laziness (and cheapness, I suppose) - I got a wooden bead for the end and was going to drill it to fit, and got some leather to tie around it, and was fully intending to make it the right way....but never got around to it.
