Hello Forum and thanks

Hello from Cornwall.
Nearly 2 years ago I took on an old piggery with a new roof and floor approximately 7x8m and built an insulated studio in one half and a woodworking workshop in the other. I then had two days of very useful one to one training with a GCF forum member who advised me on setting up my workshop, good working practice and introduced me to this forum.
Then it was onto ebay for good quality, second hand, professional equipment; a Morso, a Keencut ultimat gold mountcutter and an Excalibur 5000, I also bought an old cassese 88 underpinner from an other forum member.
My catchment area has a rich tradition in the arts and many working artists who are my main customer base.
Thank you forum, you have been a valuable resource in the transition from framing as a hobby, as i had done on and off for many years, to the framing business I have today.
