I have been playing about with this machine and have produced a sample corner of a basic reverse moulding hard to get to grips with but it's still developing I will probably end up supplying them in frames only as there is a lot of machining to supply in lengths I should be moving onto the wave styl...

Hi
I did send a message
they are £500 plus vat and delivery new from Selwyns
I would be ok with £200 ex vat and delivery

it is black fabric and a beech wood trim
5 sides at 12 inch wide per side
also spins
bought from Selwyns

I wholly agree with Mitreman never use double sided tape I had a 1966 England replica shirt in signed by some of the original players who won the world cup needless to say the double sided tape had embedded into the fabric and had to be sent to a textile restorer for removal The fomecore and tab met...

I use 5mm fomecore and cut a sort of body shape and stretch the shirt over that securing with tabs as Ness framers mention above

Thanks to all for the above
for info only ,spoke with Neilsen and it looks as though C&H have gone
shame as they were a great machine

Thanks for the replies
I will give NB a call and expect the possible pia!

Does anyone know if C&H mountcutters are still sold in the uk

try rubbing some Tung Oil onto oak
it may need two coats and left to dry for 24 hours
wax after

good to see you back Mark
