Polyvine do some good top coats, dead flat matt and satin and I think NYAF uses a wax version too

Very sad news.

Have you tried adjusting the bolts in the handle, in picture E left hand side? One of the bolts on mine shifted(as there is room for adustement) and caused a similar issue.

Hi Greg, First off, I set up accounts with Wessex, Lions, Larson Juhl and Rose and Hollis. Larson Juhl website, you can order all of their mountboard chevron sets and holders, free glass gloves and glass displays. Wessex I buy all my mountboard by the sheet (Larson Juhl mountboards), backboards, dis...

Wow!Respect Rainbow! I just looked up the Nobex thingy.You cut frame mitres with that? I guess you dont get asked for 20 kit frames very often.Fair play. The morso isvone of my favourite tools. Foot operated, blades that can take your fingers off...whats not to like ??

Well seeing as we pay it every year anyway, less for more is a win win, no? If the worst happens, they'll pay out if ive kept to the fine print,which ive read letter by letter of course...

Just to share with the group, I have recently taken out a business insurance policy with Hiscox Insurance. Customer service was great, with far less questions and backwards and forwardsing to check details with insurers. Altogether an easy process, higher cover than previously and a saving of over £...

Hi Tinweasel,
I can recommend a Cassese CS88 foot operated underpinner, adjustable fences, easy to maintain and you can pick one up for a reasonable price at times.
Good luck!

I'm assuming you're aware that Wessex do one for £360 ish and Estlite is £450ish. Both one off payments with free ongoing updates.

Agree, if the wheel sounds like it's just sliding down the glass and not scoring,its axwheel change..

Steve Goodall at wessex will be able to advise, he's the Hotpress guru. 07585 138566

If I'm vacuum dry mounting, I either use 2mm display board from Wessex or 3mm/5mm foamboard. (Put it under weight straight away til it cools to prevent bending as it cools).

Have a look at Crescent "Better" range and Nielsen mountboards.

Mine is 16mm. The blades spanner is 17mm.

Have you looked on the ICON website?

Hi Lis Welcome to the group! I have been looking at the cs199 and 299 lately, although sadly my equipment budget now appears to be zero this year, so I'm sticking with my trusty CS88 for the time being. I can recommend Estlite pricing software. I haven't looked back, once it was set up right. There'...

Reminds me of when I bought some Thai floor cushions in Bangkok. I thought it would be much cheaper to buy them unfilled, post them home and do it myself...
Half a day to locate a supplier of cotton wadding by the roll. Hours each to stuff them and hours of sewing them up...lesson learnt!
