Re: Multiple apitures

Is it the actual layout of the 12 (presumably) different size prints that is giving you grief or the prospect of cutting the apertures on your keencut? If its the latter then maybe I can help out with some tips. I now use a Valiani Matpro and have'nt used my keencut for maybe 3 years or more but I u...

Re: Portrait on Pastel

Hi Paul

Not sure if this will work or not, made a crude sketch in Excel, attached
Excel doesn't do bevel mounts so these mounts are square.....

Re: Portrait on Pastel

I would start by using the platform mount method to secure the pastel, no sticking down required. The window mount of the platform would then form the spacer, or part of the spacer to develop a pastel trap, you may need more than 1 mount thickness to give an adequate gap. The front window mount with...

Re: The White Decision?

CC paste here as well, feels pricey but it's worth it.
The white also mixes to different colours very easily using Lion's Mixol stainers or even paint.

Re: Dent in paper

Ouch, hope you gave your doggy a ticking off.... Is the print is still commercially available ? If so it may be worth considering biting the bullet and replacing it. Assuming it is not a limited edition its value may not be too much ?? Then you could have a proper go at sorting out the dent without ...

Re: Hydraulic flat bed heat press 8Ft x 4 Ft

I just want to endorse Mark's diagnosis, sounds perfectly logical to me.

Re: Huge Canvas

Is this going to be a short term display for some kind of specific event?
If so then presumably the canvas would be rolled up and taken away or even disposed of after the event and would not stay on the frame.
This could change the game as far as design of a stretcher bar arrangement is concerned

Hi Rainbow
Just curious to hear what the supplier said about the discrepancy between the sample and board supplied, feedback is quite useful.

Re: Specification of mountboard changed?

I'm not familiar with Crescent boards but I would have thought your first recourse would be to contact your supplier and see what they say !

Re: Separating business for VAT

I'm sure there will be guidelines published by HMRC that will give you some ideas as to whether what you are trying to achieve can be done legally. Do you use an accountant? if so then that is the obvious place to start asking about this, particularly as they will presumably be reasonably familiar w...

Re: Another gap issue

The op states that this gap is there before the two pieces are joined so presumably no underpinner involved... The illustration shows a flat moulding, so what happens if it is cut face down eliminating rebate supports? If there is then a gap at the back of the join I suspect it's the blades not corr...

Re: Wanted: Excalibur 5000

It's probably worth looking at the condition of the cutting wheels, they are easily replaced (available direct from Keencut) and I suspect will make quite a difference.
