SALE AGREED!!!

Hi. My ad is 6 posts down from yours under "Sales Wants" . It reads "Morso f and Alfamachine underpinner in Ireland". Morso is in very good condition. It has one set of blades and these probably are due for sharpening. Other than that everything works perfectly. The handle from o...

Have you seen my post with morso and minigraf underpinner. I can have either one delivered to London. SOmeone interested in minigraf but Morso still available.

What exactly are you looking for. Is it prints of Monets, Van Goughs and modern prints. If so I have about 50 assorted that I am selling as my business is closing down.

I am interested in doing a one day course in mountcutting. D this is an area where I would like to up skill Does anyone know where I can do this in Ireland North or South

Melted wax crayon works well. And polishes to a nice shine. But it gets all over the place. Keep well away from mountboard and artwork and clean up afterwards. The cream waxes above seem like a better idea I once used black mastic...worked well but what a mess

I pay a lot less than that for 900sq feet of art gallery and workshop. Ill try to get details tomorrow for you.

Thanks Steve. I dont have a jetmounter 34 but was considering it if volume increases. I know there are solutions to the exact size rolls being available but its a little more work cutting to size before laminating.

Does anyone here use the jetmounter 34. Do Hotpress make suitable size rolls of laminates to fit.I know when it came out first there were only the 25 inch and 42 inch rolls available, I mount nautical charts which are 28 inch widw and 48 inch long. nerve wrecking trying to mount onto self adhesive b...

Ive used a De Walt DW703 with good results. Never as fine a finish as a morso but you can always use the morso to shave the last sliver off to give a good finish.

Thanks. That makes sense. I had been working from the side and found it quite awkward. Interesting point on the height of the top clamp. I had mine set too high.

Ive been wearing hill walking boots for the past few weeks. I do however change the socks now and then.They are very light and with thick soles with bigh grips they keep me well off the floor. Very cosey indeed.The last hing you want is flat thin soled shoes. Also its a good idea to wear a warm hat....

Ive recently purchased a bench mounted Alfa3 pneumatic underpinner second hand for £190. It appears to be working fine. I find some things a bit fiddly to manage. Im wondering if anyone here has a similar machine and are there any secrets to getting the best use from it. It came with a box of wedges...

Fishing rod. Oh and a €5 note with an inscription "In emergency, please break glass" I even stuck down the €5 o sticky board. Talk about conversation

Here is the promised final result. And this is my final answer. Ive phoned a friend(emailed actually, Thanks Lynda) Asked the audience(Framers Forum) And brought it down to 50/50 Final Answer attached. I hope brings me nearer to making my first million The inner scoop was hand painted in acrylic usi...

Thanks guys for all the valuable feedback. Ive picked up quite a few ideas. Im now looking ata classical gold outer with a flat gold inner. Ill post a picture when I get it done> I need to order in some stuff first. Thanks again.

My butcher uses a cleaver to cut fillets. Fillet steaks that is. And with the precision of a morso. No scraggly bits either, All joints are excellent and no need for filler or sanding. A rub of garlic prevents them from shrinking or drying out. Bot so sure what he would do if I asked him for a "...
