Re: Hoffman Dovetail Router vs Cassese Underpinner
Mark Yes, more than one clamp would be extravagant. Framer friend told me Titebond 3, superstrong n waterproof, so that's what in using. I'm going to have a demo on an MU2 tomorrow although I'm aiming for an xline 20. Prospero I'm getting a demo on pinning the mitres tomorrow too. Don't have a vice ...

Re: Hoffman Dovetail Router vs Cassese Underpinner
Thanks Mark,
It doesn't look like the Genisis or Fletcher 4000 are readily available these days, so it's back to the Hoffman.
Having finished my day underpinning a 700x500 oak frame and have the wedges push the mitre open (again), the Hoffman is looking very attractive!

Hoffman Dovetail Router vs Cassese Underpinner
Hi All, Just looking for some advice. I've been framing for about 9 months now, working a lot with hand finished frames, Tulip, Ash and Oak. I am wondering whether I would be better off swapping my Cassese CS1 for a Hoffman dovetail router. As I was warned, the Ash and Oak are tricky to underpin, st...

Re: painting plain wood mouldings
I can recommend the Daler Rowney D88 One Stroke brushes. I'm new to hand finishing too, but this is working for me, although time is the issue until I get faster, oh and space. Having 15 frames to finish at once in various colours is a headache.. 2x coats of primer undercoat, light sand between coat...

Re: Mountboard Quantities?
Thanks everyone, it's great to know there is help and advice out there!! I'll have a look at the Munken board. I've specced a nice thick Arqadia board for this job. Thicker mounts seem to be popular with artists in these parts... Steve N, we're talking the same language!!! :clap: :star: :star: :star...

Re: Mountboard Quantities?
It's not wanting to vastly over order, or have to wait a week for another delivery that's bothering me.
Am I crazy to think I can add all the measurements together and see how many sheets fit into it, and round it up to a pack??

Re: Wanted
Hi James
There's one come up on eBay today for £490, in Suffolk, sadly too far for us, looks very well looked after.
