[quote="GeoSpectrum"]Kenny Everett, Marcel Marceau feel about it?....I'll take that as a compliment, :D unless you mean his character Reg Prescott...pure genius. :lol: :lol:

I've not seen that sketch before, brilliant. Have you read the You Tube comments on the video? They are hilarious. Interesting voice over from someone saying "Oh God" halfway through too.

Take it as a compliment for sure. Director's tip for your next "how to wrap a picture" demo: I think a thumbs up at the end would complete the Kenny Everett feel of the production.

I've felt a bit left out of all the excitement of using handy wrap so I’ve ordered some today! Looks like great stuff.

And thanks to Retropic for reminding me how much I used to enjoy watching Kenny Everett on the telly. Very funny man :clap:

The frame you’re wrapping in your video is uncannily similar to one I have under my bench. Even the brown cord and extra thick felt bumpers are familiar to me :wink:

Wow, this has turned into a real handywrap love-in! I've been wrapping anything and everything I can find since getting the hang of it. Except the girlfriend, although when the giant roll of bubble wrap arrived the other day and I said to.the guy from Wessex that my girlfriend would be happy it arrived he seemed not to get my weary irony but gave me a sort of Leslie Philips nod and a wink instead. Will have to be careful what I say when they deliver the handywrap :giggle:

Maybe you'd find handywrap in black a useful addition to your workshop, should you wish to experiment with its' uses.
