Re: Fletcher 2100 owners manual

Hi Frameshop

the owners manual is still available on the Fletcher Terry website at $5.00. You need to go to the online store and do a search for the 2100.

Hope this helps

Re: Waste glass disposal.

Hi Mike

Glass & Mirror do a re-cycling service which works out about a £1 per week. They provide you with plastic crates, which they exchange everytime you get your next delivery. This is the best deal that we've found and seems to work ok with us.

Re: Cardboard Picture Frame Boxes..

Hi Johnny

what size boxes are you after?

Post and packaging

Hi

have a look at my website. The picture shipping box may be more cost effective for you than buying the individual packaging. As for carriage have a look at the fastaway couriers website.

isp's and web hosting

I'm also using streamline like merlin to host my website, but I designed my website using the Serif Webplus program. Think you can download a free full working version from the Serif site.
Even for a computer dunce like me I found it straight forward to use and it didn't cost the earth either.
