Hi all

Can anyone help with our search for a new moulding supplier?

We are currently using the usual larger U.K suppliers for their plastic mouldings but our customers would like a wider variety. Are their plastic mouldings available from the continent?

We are looking to expand our business and now require another picture framer.

Hi

Is the saw still for sale?

Is there any more details regarding the saw such as age, model number, are there spare saw blades?

Where exactly are you based in Monkton?

Regards
Andy

We are looking to expand our business and now require another picture framer. Would be part-time to begin with leading to possible full-time contract.

sorry to hear you're closing.

How old is the minigraf 4?

we have a client who would like some framed prints...but he needs to hang them above radiators..

is there a tape or other product available that won't dry out and therefore the print won't fall from the mount?

Andy

Does anyone know of anyone in the Glasgow area that has an Alfa Minigraf M-4 or similar underpinner for sale?

Andy

Thanks for all the info guys....time to go do some research into prices etc...

We are looking to buy in bulk orders of sundries like D rings, plastic corners, kraft tape etc...any ideas about suppliers other than Lion and D J Simons?

thanks
Andy

Finally got our new CMC installed

Gunnar F1 Hybrid, what can I say about it apart from WOW!!!

Only used it for an hour or so but it looks like an amazing piece of kit....well pleased.

David Jarvis of Gunnar...very nice guy to.

thanks to all replies.

Will pass on all info to my boss, i see that both machines are very good and should suit our needs perfectly. Now it's down to the boss...

thanks again
Andy

Finally got round to some research on the CMC front and my boss has it narrowed down between 2.

The Wizard 8000 from Framer's Corner or the Valiani Mat pro from DJ Simons

Has anyone had any issues with either machines, as far as i can see the valiani is slightly better.

Any thoughts???

Andy
