I cut strips of foam board (and mount board if I want to match the board the item is mounted on) on the excalibur.

Well maybe, they have given me the first money this guy had, given to him by his finish mum when he was evacuated during the war

And have to do a doubled sided frame with the coin etc, so another one like one of robo's recent ones too :mrgreen:
