Nice work Steve.

Just got myself some Mylar.

Mylar, speciality glass, rag mountboard what is happening to me

Now where did I put my masking tape

[prospero]

Did a couple of old maps recently. Also double-sided. And also with the edges showing. I sandwiched the two pieces of glass with p-90 and made a thin insert at the back held in with spring clips. That way you can quickly flip the contents around to show the other side.

jeez alistair you will be turning into a bespoke framer!!!!

ah you just cant see the masking tape on that one

[Graysalchemy]

Been doing museum work recently and a large exhibition all in hand finished frames, so still contract but more discerning.

Quote STCSTC ' and more beer tokens'

That is the plan

[Not your average framer]

Nice job Stephen!

I like using mylar in framing as well. It's so versatile, very easy to work with and it's not just for conservation framing jobs, but it can make life easier when framing so many PITA jobs.
