I to, as a jolly good framer use cord, wire to me seems so much more trouble to use and does not look any better. I don't see much wire used down here in cornwall, but I'm sure John and Kev will have somthing to say if they use it.

Yes sounds like a good tip Bill, I will also be trying it.
And John, what we should do when we get mouldings like that, is send them back, but of course we rarely do.

I have just phoned the hotel, my booking ok.

The receptionist said they were ringing round to make sure the rooms were still required, for your own peace of mind you may want to ring if you reserved a room and they havent been in touch.

Hi Nigel
I would use the Laser on a flat surface, make sure your blade is adjusted so that it just cuts into the undermat. Also when cutting large mounts make sure you keep an even pressure for the full lenth of the cut.
