Hi John

Thank you again for your reply. If you wanted to float mount a canvas print in a similar fashion what would you bond the canvas to and what would you use to raise the canvas off the mountboard.

Thank you

Sean

Hi John

Thanks for your reply. In your example how is the inner frame fixed to the back mount and what material did you use for the back mount.

Thank you

Sean

Hi
Whats the best way to mount a canvas print inside a box frame, would it be fixed to mount board or a thicker backing board and would it be glaxed or open.

Any ideas please

Hi Sorry I have taken so long to reply I have just returned from South Korea during my day job. A heat pump system is like a refrigerator in reverse, in winter it takes heat from outside, add in the power the compressor uses to compress the refrigerant and blows the warm air into the space to be hea...

Hi Get a heat pump system installed, it will keep the temperature and humidity pretty constant all year round and can be run off a 13amp plug socket in most cases. I installed a system in my garage workshop last year and like all garages it was unbearably hot in summer and deathly cold in winter but...

The cost of this units have really decreased over the last few years though the...

Hi
Thanks for your replies, I bought the Machine 2nd hand in very good condition, I will copy the instruction manual and set up as per Robo's instruction. I wonder is it a good idea to get an extra righthand stop when making lots of cuts the same size.

Hi Forum I am having trouble with my recently purchased Keencut 5000 cutting short by about 4mm then the measurement set on the righthand scale stop :head: :head: . Is this usual and is there anything I can do to adjust this measurement problem. I have left messages on Keencuts web message contact p...

Hi Once again thanks very much for all your ideas :clap: , it makes it much easier for us newbies. But if I picked the same mountboard Robo uses I must on the right track. Now I just need to learn how to use my Morso, mountcutter and underpinner properly :head: and I mignt get a decent frame done :g...

Hi Forum I am an amateur photographer and I have just purchased professional equipment to begin framing/selling my own prints. I want to display a line of black & white land & sea scapes, I have chosen what I think is a good mount (Artcare Frost with black core) but am really stuck on a good...

Hi I am pretty new to framing but enjoying the new challenges it brings :D . I would like to enhance my frames by using bevelled foamboard mounts but have a few questions on whats the best way to do it. 1. How is the bevilled foamboard fixed to the front mount and what with. :?: 2. Do I hinge my art...

I was going to reply with " oh yes it is" but the panto season finished months ago thank heavens (we had the evergreen :lol: Cannon & Ball in Jack in the beanstalk :oops: ). If I use a heayweight printer paper that hangs straight is it ok just to hinge the print off the back of the mou...
