another option would be to use the profile type drawings, then only have to look at finishes in that profile

It’s a nice feature but what most suppliers could do with concentrating on is the ability to allow us search against the various attributes of a molding; say I want a wood, brushed gold, 25-30mm wide with a 12mm or deeper rebate and no scooped back. At the moment I have to browse through dozens of a...

its because they are running in flash, now stevie boy has gone i wonder if we might see flash go into the ipad next

But will it actually make us buy more mainline moulding

Certainly an excellent feature leaving many competitors lagging behind

Doesn't work on my iPad so don't know how 21st century this is?

Just checked it out, they are well in advance of all the websites in our trade IMHO they new 3D effect is great, cant wait to see the movie!

Showing your age there John!

That appealed to me too as it is time consuming looking up supplier's ref nos.

Come on Lion, this is a first class feature.

Just had a look, excellent tool for us and customers to viualise the moulding.

Well Done mainline.

pretty sweet! - wish all suppliers did this!

sadly j2m it's to match an existing frame - already done in skane, so the mainline one won't cut it (as much as i love mainline)

Mainline do some similar mouldings. This one is 20mm wide but deeper rebate: http://mainlinemouldings.com/index.php?ProductID=200-1127 We found the finish was very prone to damage on the Skane range and changed to the same ...
