The Framers Forum

Hello fellow framers,

I have my own framing business in Salzburg Austria. I specialise in making different kinds of ripple molding frames.

If you want to find out more about ripple moldings, this is my website: http://www.flammleisten.at

Best regards

Jakob,

Welcome to the forum and I wish you good business with your ripple mouldings

Salzburg eh...... reminds me of a framer I visited there in 2002.
GUNTHER - who were at Eduard Baumgartner str. 4.
Huge shop with 1000's of moulding corners on all of 3 walls.
I asked the lady " How do you promote your business?"
She told me rather abruptly " We dont need to - everyone knows us"
I asked " How can you be so sure? "
She replied "We have been framing here since 1879 "

Have to confess I couldn't think of an answer, so left

The shop is no longer there, it has shrunk to a much smaller place and is now in the centre, below the cliff.

Welcome Jakob.

Good luck with the ripple mouldings, an interesting product.

Hello Jakob, welcome to the forum.

I have used Jakob's ripple mouldings before and they are of excellent quality, anyone offering extensive hand finishing or making antique style frames would find these mouldings very useful.

Hi Keith,

I had to grin when reading about your experience in Salzburg. Now i know what happens when you are famous since 1879. We salzburgers learn it the hard way. Thank you for the welcome.

Thank you John for the welcome and well wishes.

Hi Richard Christie,

nice to hear from you again. I thank and appreciate your recommendation of my ripple moldings.
