Hi from Chelmsford, Essex

Post by Spanglecat »

Hi all,
firstly i'll introduce myself. My name is Mark and i live with my family in Chelmsford. I'm a train driver working for Southeastern. I'm just getting started with picture framing. A couple of years ago my collection of posters began to grow so decided to frame my own. Learnt on the way that i need a clean space to do this so built a workshop at the end of the garden and last Thursday the lights were finally turned on. Have gradually acquired tools on the way though some may go making way for newer. Just need to fill my workshop up with stock and i can begin.

You'll probably hear from me soon asking many questions.

Mark
