Re: Self adhesive boards for mounting photos
Thanks for your ideas on this. I have a bit of homework to do in finding the three videos I think this is the video Peter mentioned.

Re: Mount Cutters
You want the tech s .012 for general mount cutting s blades are a single chisel edge and you can only cut on one side. I prefer the d knife edge blades as you can use both sides of the blades which means twice as many cuts per blade :D I do use the chisel edge blades when cutting thicker board as I...
