The Framers Forum

Wow!Respect Rainbow! I just looked up the Nobex thingy.You cut frame mitres with that? I guess you dont get asked for 20 kit frames very often.Fair play. The morso isvone of my favourite tools. Foot operated, blades that can take your fingers off...whats not to like ??

Well seeing as we pay it every year anyway, less for more is a win win, no? If the worst happens, they'll pay out if ive kept to the fine print,which ive read letter by letter of course...

Just to share with the group, I have recently taken out a business insurance policy with Hiscox Insurance. Customer service was great, with far less questions and backwards and forwardsing to check details with insurers. Altogether an easy process, higher cover than previously and a saving of over £...

Hi Tinweasel,
I can recommend a Cassese CS88 foot operated underpinner, adjustable fences, easy to maintain and you can pick one up for a reasonable price at times.
Good luck!

I'm assuming you're aware that Wessex do one for £360 ish and Estlite is £450ish. Both one off payments with free ongoing updates.

Agree, if the wheel sounds like it's just sliding down the glass and not scoring,its axwheel change..

Steve Goodall at wessex will be able to advise, he's the Hotpress guru. 07585 138566

If I'm vacuum dry mounting, I either use 2mm display board from Wessex or 3mm/5mm foamboard. (Put it under weight straight away til it cools to prevent bending as it cools).

Have a look at Crescent "Better" range and Nielsen mountboards.

Mine is 16mm. The blades spanner is 17mm.

Have you looked on the ICON website?

Hi Lis Welcome to the group! I have been looking at the cs199 and 299 lately, although sadly my equipment budget now appears to be zero this year, so I'm sticking with my trusty CS88 for the time being. I can recommend Estlite pricing software. I haven't looked back, once it was set up right. There'...

Reminds me of when I bought some Thai floor cushions in Bangkok. I thought it would be much cheaper to buy them unfilled, post them home and do it myself...
Half a day to locate a supplier of cotton wadding by the roll. Hours each to stuff them and hours of sewing them up...lesson learnt!

Does that not work?
To put the sim in phone receive pin, put sim back in, reconnect and enter?

You might get the advice you need over the phone, from Mark at www.underpinner-spares.co.uk

I think Cleaver already has a copy of that sheet Steve.
Strap hangers from Lions are also a good alternative, when the frame is wide enough to take them, like sawtooth hangers.
The D rings are pointed upwards, directed at the hanging point to reduce stress on the d rings.

Or EVA?

I'm confused. You've T hinge mounted a canvas with a window mount? Rather than restretch it onto stretcher bars and frame it?

Whenever possible! The rebates are a pita and slow me down most of the time. Obviously it only works with flat faced mouldings.
I have been known to do it with simple flat prefinished mouldings on occasion. You just have to be methodical, careful and keep everything clean.

There are deckle edged rulers available. I have a number of artists who use them on all work intended for floating.
