Argon filled case
Posted: Fri 20 Jun, 2008 1:55 pm
Hi all;
I have a possible business venture in the works that will be manufacturing of hermetically sealed acrylic cases that can be inserted into a frame. The face and back of these cases will be made up of UV filtering (OP2) acrylic. Air is removed via a medical syringe or vacuum pump and Argon is then inserted with a hand held applicator. The Argon is contained in a capsule similar to CO2 capsules used to charge soda bottles in a family bar.
I am looking for feedback as to what you fellow framers think about this project for your use. The basic idea is 4 standard sizes (yet to be determined and a starting point) plus custom sizes. As for pricing..... A cost of about $100US to framers for a letter size case.

Thanks all,
