Re: Hello

Welcome Rotorhead77 I was going to suggest you try posting on The Grumble - the USA equivalent of this mainly UK forum. But I see you already joined yesterday and have received many replies and lots of advice. To me it seems a bit messy buying a few mouldings from LJ in UK to frame your print, when ...

Re: Tru Vue video

I'm sure you can use it. That's surely the whole point of making it available Its so emotional, and sure to motivate your customers to bring in similar collections for framing :clap: One way to find our - send it to all your customers and monitor the response. Do other Forum members plan to use it :?:

Prompted to ask this question as I still get birthday reminders from Face Book of friends long dead. I notice some people even post on the deceased page some nice comments But if your executor doesn't know your pass word to delete the page, then I assume the FB page will remain years after you have ...

Re: Daler Rowney Boards not Square

These boards are made and cut at the same time as they pass along on a continuous laminator The edges on the long grain sides usually the 1125 or 1200 mm side should be spot. I.E. exactly 815 mm from edge to edge. The problem occurs with the 815 mm edge which is cut by a rotary guillotine So its not...
