Just wonder if there is anyone on here that I can ask questions about my Mat Pro Ultra 150 BC

Cut my first oval/circle the other day not perfect but good enough to go in a oval frame, Used some of the methods as previously described, To my amazement it worked first time.
Thanks for the knowledge

I may well be, not sure how the software works in licensing terms but we possibly go half’s on it.

In the meantime have you seen this film? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man ... ed_Himself

No problem with hi jacking my post I’m sure the reply’s we get (if any[emoji3]) will benefit us both. Not had a chance to fire my Valiani up yet going to come back to the shop tonight to play (better give the micro bar a couple of doors away a miss until after) We have just moved shop to a much bigg...

Just had a Valiani mat pro ultra 150BC installed today and although it’s early days still got to find my way round V Studio just wondering what others use ie Illustrator, Coral, Inkscape, Affinity or anything else to import in to V Studio. Loving the Valiani from what I’ve seen so far, going to have...

Been asked to frame this with rear lighting customer said, Self contained battery powered will be ok and I’m sure I read on here some time ago recommendations for suppliers but also enquiring about mains/transformer options. I was thinking about translucent Perspex or open to other suggestions for t...

What do other users think about FramR the way they have changed the price round up if indeed you use the option to round up to the nearest pound. For those who don’t use it basically it rounds up the price at the final figure on the invoice but also shows the pre round up price as well and they seem...

Excellent job, that’s how my customer described he wanted his but it just didn’t look right folding it here and there. I think the distressed nature of yours helps quite a lot with the overall appearance of the finished job. Will show him yours and have another go at trying to billow layout that loo...

Customer would like this framed but would like it reduced in size ie folded in such a way that it looks likes it’s billowing has anyone done this or other suggestions to reduce its overall size (excluding letting my wife wash it) https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20190521/ee80426ecdef6a82f678896123ad...

I am still trialling i-framer but using Framr at the moment for running my business. one major difference is the way prices are calculated between the two as framr works on material cost + Labour + Mark up, whereas from what I can see i-framer is just multiplying material cost + mark up, please corr...

Have you tried FramR? it will cost you £9.99 to try it. I am just trialling i-framer before I get too involved with FramR I will post on my personal conclusions between the two soon. I’m beginning to think they are both by the same person who’s name is Mark [emoji3] But as already stated I am liking...

That’s probably because I spelt it wrong.[emoji3]

Will have another look at the Keencut for trimming I have tried it before but a bit of a guessing game seeing exactly where the cut is going to be. Will give the Stanley knife a try as you say more ridged a up to the job. Thanks for the offer you never know now we have our caravan might be up your w...

Just want it to trim posters, photos etc. Just had two large Japanese posters in today, very fine paper, The uneven edges need trimming parallel to the image boarders. I don’t find my Keencut straight edge, scalpel and cutting mat combination as accurate as I would like. Sent from my iPhone using Ta...

I am after a Rotatrimer or Keencut etc equivalent
I don’t know much about them but I need one that has a capacity of over a meter and very accurate. Any info or availability very much appreciated

When I first started I only used Wessex as a supplier the problems began when I also started using Lion who supplied the data for the WPP but the file had to be altered so the WPP would accept it and it eventually did after intervention from Lion and WPP but when the time came to update the Lion fil...

I currently use the Wessex pricing software that cost quite a considerable amount but due to endless problems updating it with anything but Wessex prices I have decided to try the new subscription FrameR had a few problems that have been sorted out very quickly by the developers and I think I quite ...

I think that’s a great idea mainly because I have just invested a considerable sum of money in photo printing equipment, where the customer connects their phone SD card etc. Also passport photos. So far my experience are prints from a phone come out pretty good up to 12x8 as I use lustre photo paper...
