Square board?

Just a simple question really, interested to know how many framers square the mount board before cutting a mount or just trust that 2 corners will be square and cut the size required out?

Ian

ps: I know that the boards are oblong!

Re: Sucking out the flumbs

Hi John

Try using a feather to remove flumbs, If you ask Merlin he might be able to send you a buzzard feather, I would but they are too cunning around here and avoid all the guns
