Underpinner needed

Post by framingstudent »

Does anyone have an underpinner I can buy or know where I can buy one that isn't close to £1000? I need one for building canvas stretchers, but on a limited budget.
I am in London, can't collect.

Hi I've got a Minigraf 3 pneumatic underpinner in good condition and working order and it comes with a Bambi double motor compressor ( very quiet) . One motor is faulty though but think can be repaired . Gets pressure still up to 9 bar.
I am asking for £350 for the both. We are based in Gillingham, Dorset

Don't you just love it when people ask for help or whatever and then just seem to disappear off the face of the earth…….alien abduction perhaps?

Looking for something that is in working condition. Also something simpler, foot operated, not pneumatic. £350 is above budget. Thanks anyway

Or a life outside of the framers forum. Replied in two days, relax.

If it’s mainly for stretchers you can get any size, made to measure stretcher bars from eternamedia.com and all you need to put them together is a small mallet and a measuring tape. First class bars.

Hi,

I have a CS79 underpinner & am based in Orpington - near London. I am looking for £450 for it as it is part of my late father-in-laws estate.

Kind regards

Nicky
