Re: Dirty Glass

I had a sheet of 'Artglass' from Wessex Leamington with a big scratch in the middle.
I emailed twice with no reply. I am hoping next time I go in I will get some sort of recompense.
They have always been good in the past.

Re: MORSO KNEE ..

I was think a while back how awkward it was lifting the old knee up, (my morso is sitting on 2 3x2s so I can get the shavings out of the front) I thought this machine needs a stop , then I saw the nut sitting in the slot at the top. Dohhhh !

gold mountboard

I have to make a small brass mount for a movie, I was thinking I could get away with gold card, is there a good way of making the bevelled edges look gold, can anyone recommend the best 'metallic looking' gold mountboard? Thanks it has to be at Ealing Studios for Monday !
