... really appreciate the response. I’ve ended up with polecore and wooden ones. Quite frankly I don’t know which to pick, I’m getting them from lion, mainline and Centrado. Are there easier ones to use as I could focus on selling those first maybe, is wood easier than polecore? On the small thin wooden ...

Mainline do a polcore one that looks very much like that. POL4875

... they do also offer a van delivery service. https://www.wessexpictures.com/bournemouth_branch.html Lion no longer offer a blade sharpening service. Mainline Mouldings do ours and they collect them and deliver them back via Royal Mail - all arranged online. https://mainlinemouldings.com/index.php?DepartmentID=13

Lion or Mainline Mouldings have done mine in the past.

Hi all. Flat black matt moulding 45 to 55mm wide Any suggestions on where to buy this moulding?
I used to use emafyl, but its not available any more.
(i sort of need it in the emafyl price range)
Bad experience with mainline - so i won't order from them... thanks in advance.

Anyone have a stash of 007-3025?

I could do with 15-30m

Thanks

Have a look at Lion, Mainline, Larson Juhl to name a few. I try and stick to suppliers that offer chop and single lengths, to keep stock down. Lion offer a great range of what I call everyday mouldings (I can sell them everyday!). LJ ...

Mainline for us too. Superb service.

We use Mainline’s blade sharpening service. I once used a local company and their prices were very low, the reason for the cheapness soon became apparent.

There are plenty of suppliers out there (Nielsen Design, Larsen Juhl, Centrado, Lion, Flagship Framing, Mainline, Rose and Hollis, Wessex, Simons). I know that Centrado and Wessex use their own vans and there is a distinct advantage to that over the general carriers. In no ...

I get 90% of my mouldings and board products from Centrado. I like the van delivery rather than the pot luck of couriers.

I also use Larson juhl, Lion and Mainline.

Looks like it might be something from Mainline Mouldings PolCore range.

Also look at

Ashworth & Thompson
Centrado
Mainline Mouldings
Rose & Hollis
D&J Simons

You should be able to ask Dr Google for the web addresses of all these

Hi. Does anyone know where I can get some of this moulding. I only need two lengths.

It’s Simons URBN 03 or Mainline 5030234 both say it’s out of stock and discontinued.
I look forward to hearing from you.

I need a black gloss moulding 30mm x 15mm, Mainline have discontinued 007-0305.

My customer has already got several frames in this moulding.

Thanks in advance

... does as never used but stored for while. Will they work without sharpening or this rust and time made them useless? I could sharpen mine once but Mainline seems to not like Ireland. It is nice to have 2nd blades anyway. 2. In UK only proper sharpening is offered in Mainline? Any recommendations ...

... to the backing board using double sided tape and PVA glue. The slip will be painted a colour featured in the picture and the main frame will be Mainline 010-8484 in the colour Grey. I may add a supporting brace on the rear of the backing board. Please advise of any concerns you have with the ...

Great thanks Mark! Yep Going to get the blunt ones sharpened by mainline then reinstall when they're back. Thanks for your input

... may be a way of reducing cash flow committments and keeping suppliers in good financial shape. Have you considered looking at the mouldings in the mainline polcore range, or the Simons Emafil range. I don't suppose that they will have the exact same mouldings, but you may find mouldings that are ...

... wondering if I should let someone else suffer the job. Any opinions please? I've been looking at stretcher bars that are wide and shallow, such as Mainline STR-5520, so the 20mm depth leaves me with something to tug on for that desireable tidy wrap finish. I see on the forum experienced framers ...
