Re: 2015 Bulk Mountboard Purchase

Here is another tip. My son had a suit delivered today and it came with a free zip up suit carry cover. Thinking outside the box, the suit carry cover is the ideal size for the cut mountboard and nubord (40 x 50cm). So I am having that and can now store the mountboard dust free. Nubord will have to ...

Re: 2015 Bulk Mountboard Purchase

Hi Mike, Thanks for the tip about marking the back of the mountboard, which was helpful to me today. Used my new Logan 350-1 and it was so easy to cut the boards after watching a YouTube video a couple of times. Much better than reading the instruction booklet. Even cut the norboard to size with it,...

Re: 2015 Bulk Mountboard Purchase

Mike and Tom brought in the mountboard and nuboard to the CCC last night. Thanks for that. Tables in the foyer had already been set up. Eager to try my A1 cutting mat and a Silverline broad 1.2m aluminium ruler with a stout handle in the middle, I launched into cutting my 7 mountboard in half with a...

Re: 2015 Bulk Mountboard Purchase

Thanks a lot Mike for deciding to bring my whole order to the CCC, especially as I am a newbie with no previous stock to fall back on.
Looking forward to cutting the A0s to A1s at the CCC!!

Re: 2015 Bulk Mountboard Purchase

Hi Mike, I will need at least a couple of sheets of the antique white and the nuboard for the Monochrome Competition for myself and perhaps another that I am trying to help out to get into the competitions. My first efforts at cutting might not be perfect needing the extra board. So I might as well ...

Re: Monochrome Print Competition - 16 Sept 2015

I was happy with most of the printed images I got back. On these large 12 inch prints, one can see more of the blemishes that need dealing with before sending off. So next time, I will view all parts of the image on screen at 100% size before sending off. Learning as I go along. I will be happy to b...

Re: 2015 Bulk Mountboard Purchase

TRANSPORTING Mountboard home. I guess that the best way to transport cut mountboard home is in an A1 Art Portfolio Storage Case eg Reeves Vinyl Finish @ £9.74; R&L Vinyl @ £12.18; R&L Nylon @ £19.15. Are these cases capable of carrying 20 mountboard sheets? Nubord is more sturdy and probably...
