Re: [Digital BW] experience

I was cutting 25 in one go - I'll learn! I use a maped which is ok, but I'd
set myself a stupid deadline. I don't think they are THAT bad though. I just
spotted one with an edge not quite straight. My corners are now a lot better
than they were though. I think next time I'll pay someone to do the whole
job. I had the frames made for me but I thought I'd try and keep costs down.
