The Framers Forum

I have a very nice second hand Cassesse S89 along with a Bambi (silent) compressor plus many extras and masses of Cassesse wedges/v nails.
All the original paperwork is included.

The total price is £800 collected.

Regards.

Is there any bare wood profiles? If so how many lengths?

Have you got a figure in mind for the complete lot or are you looking for offers?

Thanks.

Hi Dave and welcome to the FF

Good luck with your new tools and with the sale of your older kit

When I set up my second framing workshop after a very long break one of the first purchases I made was online from "Allposters" including some large cheap posters "Tiger in Snow", "Dinosaurs", "17th Century World Map", " "Hogsmead", "London...

Personally I think the idea is half baked but if it earns you a crust go for it

Hi Framie, Thank you so much for that, more help than you realize :D I've never thought of slots in the spacers for the foamboard in fact, I've never seen that method before either on youtube or in a book :!: can't wait to try it. I can see shirts could be done single sided as well as d/sided using ...

I've just framed an enormous Rugby shirt signed all over including the sleeves :shock: I needed to place the former/template in two pieces and then join inside. Scarecrow shape type thing. As the customer wanted to see both sides It was framed along the lines of Steve N (no where near as classy thou...

Peter, absolutely superb

Please talk us through your method.

Alan, when I first saw the photo with small screw eyes and triangular points I thought OMG one of mine I then remembered I'm not a Guardian reader, whew sigh of relieve

Peter

artframer, your conclusions sound like a good plan :D It's obvious you are determined to make frame making a success and this forum is a great and unique resource in achieving this as framing courses and books can be. Many of us older framers started joining our frames by "side pinning". N...

prospero wrote "Obeche is maybe the nicest wood for hand-finishing" :clap: I completely agree. As well as diluted fine surface filler there are other ways to fill the pores. Once again, hats off to you NYAF for achieving a finish using Parana Pine that's a wood I gave up on years ago :oops...

I add my thanks for a demonstration of skill, patience and dedication. and take this opportunity to thank you for your other excellent videos that I enjoy watching and learned so much from.

I use a lot of Wessex 1" square gloss black and I like it :D as it's prone to flaws and marks I go and collect to check it over. In my workshop I too use cotton gloves and a microfiber cloth but the guys at Wessex seem to get good results with a little spit and the corner of their tee shirt :sh...

Judging by the helpful replies to you question the answer appears to be "yes". I agree with the opinions that receiving extra moulding overcomes the problem of dings, flaws, matching up lengths and measuring/cutting mistakes :o I do not stock much in the way of FF mouldings and often sell ...

The question asked in the OP has been posed on this FF in the past always by peeps "fairly new to framing". In my view, completely understandably. The first reply from pramsay13 was IMHO an excellent explanation as to why :clap: If my location was Beds. I too would use Arqadia for moulding...

James and Rainbow

Absolutely correct

Welcome to the FF Yewleaf Apart from seeing these machines very occasionally for sale on ebay I know nothing about them. Sorry :( . Saying that, prospero has offered very practical advice as usual :D I will only add that there are two "framing engineers" who post on here. It may be worth s...
