box lining

Post by markw »

I have recently lined a few boxes with velvet effect mountboard - using the CMC to cut a v groove on the back of the mountboard - I then remove the corners by hand leaving a very neat box when folded along the v groove.
you could cut the corners out with the CMC - but i find i get a neater finish by cutting them out with a scalpel

Mark,

Nice tip and a good one for those of us with only a manual mountcutter too!
