The Framers Forum

I would be just about comfortable with 2mm glass at that size although I would prefer 3mm. It would depend on the frame and mounting methods.

I've done it before and just glued a piece of wood all the way round to hold the glass in place.

I would always choose glass although it might depend on the actual figures.

Here's a thread from last year.

Not totally sure what you mean, do you have a photo?
Generally pins are there to hold the moulding together while the glue dries, so there's no problem gluing and clamping instead.

Are your blades sharpened properly?
Does other moulding cut okay?
Some moulding is just so soft that the back catches and in those instances I will either use a scrap piece of backing board in behind, or keep cutting until I get to a better piece of wood.

Always mount to an undermount,
I use Munken Duo board.

I haven't done a mirror that size, but I did one around 1m2 that I secured using canvas offsets but in reverse so they were holding the mirror inside the rebate. I put foam bumpers so it wasn't metal resting against glass.

As John says could be to standardise a set although the set has since been separated. Another possibility is that the frame is a standard size and the mount was cut afterwards to fit the frame rather than the frame being made to fit the mount. Before I read your question I noticed the mount edges we...

Again a photo will probably help.

How big is the overcut?
Is it improving at all if you make an adjustment?
Has it ever been correct?

We'll need a bit more information and probably photographs to help too.
Are you getting an overcut on all 4 corners, both orientations?
So 8 overcuts in all?
What thickness mountboard are you using?
Are the blades correct and sharp?
Are you using a board underneath to cut onto?

where does one see the views for each topic?

I now have 4 working sets so don't need any spares, and these ones are too short so need a bit of morso adjustment to cut through.

I get stickers for the back of the frames from Discount Stickers Limited. I used to use Vistaprint but they peeled off before the frames were out the door.
I use Moo.com for business cards.

I've got some blades now.
Related question:
what should I do with the old blades?

I have this place where old chevrons go to die.

I don't want to throw them out. Any ideas for using them, displaying them, or giving them away?

Yes, up to 40mm apparently. The majority of my mouldings are this size or less so that shouldn't be a big deal.

I'm looking for a new set of Morso blades, either new or with plenty of life left in them.

Any suggestions for where to buy?

Has anyone got a double ended set and is it worth paying extra for them to get more time with sharpened blades?
