New Software for Framers.

[sy_woodworking]

I'm a software developer by trade, I have been for 30+ years and spent a very happy 15 years on that as a contractor. During Covid most of the contracts dried up and I found myself needing something creative to scratch that urge I have to make things. So I started woodworking, the first thing I made was a frame for a photo of Norm Abrams and I found I enjoyed making picture frames.

I made myself a little tool to help me work out my cut lists for moulding, glazing, mats etc and used that for ages. As I've started doing more and more framing I've started to hold stock in my workshop so I added a stock take feature, I'm quoting frames for people that I use a chop service for so I added a catalogue of moulding from suppliers to use in the calculations ... in short the software I wrote to help me with my hobby has grown into something I think would be useful to other framers.

So I've created a version of it that's designed for multiple users and I thought I'd post about it here. It's not ready yet, it's a couple of weeks away while I test it properly but I have put the product page live this week.

There's also a mailing list to sign up to to get notified when it is ready.

I'd love it if you have any questions ...
