Re: Any of you tried these no-code site builders lately?

We used Squarespace and got something up and running within days. Pretty straightforward and the integration options are good too, online forms, shop and payment systems are only a few clicks away.

Re: second hand frames

We just set them near the front of the shop - people are able to take them, mostly students or people who think something free is always worth having. Sometimes we're able to sell a mount to help fit their 'artwork'

What is this?

Hi, the inner 'frame' in this piece? Is that just a little raw wood fillet? - something like this - https://centrado.co/product/raw-obeche-fillet-f6ob/

I need to replicate something like the example & I'm unsure on the best way to do it - any advice would be appreciated :)

Cheers
Steven

Re: Mounting a ZX Spectrum.




It's a ZX Spectrum 48k by the way, the rubber key classic with a copy of Manic Miner to go next to it. A personal project but one I can use to showcase what I can do.


I did the same thing to mine years ago - the system itself was dead so I just attached it with VHB tape & it's still attached ...

VALIANI MATSTYLUS DELUXE PEN HEAD

Hi guys

I have Valiani Pen tool for sale if anyone is interested.

It's only been used once - purely as a test and then put back on the shelf. I bought it for a project/idea that I had but I didn't go any further.

It cost me £1200 a few years back, I'm looking for about half that.

Feel free to ...

Re: Bad Cuts for Shadow Box

Hi, yes - those blades are in bad shape unfortunately. If you're in a position to just replace with new I'd do that. You can always get them sharpened but to rule out any other issues I'd just replace them (my personal opinion of course)

Also, would be advisable to add some sort of 'protective' coat over the paint?

Which Primer?

Hi

I have a customer that's been coming to us for years and whilst I don't really offer the service I've agreed to paint an existing frame of theirs. It's a fairly chunky polcore product (55x45). I reckon that any paint I use would just come off with the slightest contact from anything. Is there a ...
