Thanks for the the ideas Peter. I think the Sharpie 'x' is the best option for the moment only as we order in boxes of moulding so there's always lengths in stock before they get sold.

In an attempt to avoid over-ordering I am getting 'smarter' with stock-control using an Inventory App on Android but still looking for the best ways to allocate lengths of moulding to the customer who has ordered it so we don't use it for someone else.

Considering we have over 50 racks of moulding ...

Thanks Prospero, I'll give that a try.

Can anyone tell me if it's possible to disable the rebate clamps on the Cassese Mach 4 as we need to pin some mouldings without leaving a mark on them. Have thought about putting the metal spacer guide in front of the moulding but don't want to damage the teeth on the clamps.

There is nothing ...

Can anyone shed any light on why my cutter is getting a small hook in the internal corner of the aperture. I am using a new blade cartridge and the rotation hasn't changed in the settings.

Has anyone with a Wizard 8000 had similar problems when cutting a mount without cutting the outside, the aperture is not centered and is offset about 5mm?

John,

Is there a simple way to delete a customer entry?

Using HOTPRESS 2mm display board in a Dry Mounting Press at 90 degrees, the boards curl dramatically when cooling on a flat surface.

I have checked the temperature is correct with the manufacturers for the DMT used. Does anyone have any tips on how to stops this occuring?

Thanks in advance!

Step 2. Create a new mat with an aperture slightly larger than the outside size to allow for a gutter around the apertures. Dial in the border sizes ...

Yes, Wizard give training and it was very good. However, you cannot expect them to cater for every type of mount you come across in the workshop. From what Mark says, the answer lies in the form of two mount designs both of which were covered in the training, and now I know!

They have a very good ...

My spelling is apaling!

Float Layer was a bit ambiguous, straight forward apertures in the bottom most mount is what I need but can't figure out how to design one aperture within another, on the same design.

So will have to load a new board the same outside size and position the apertures using ...
