Although they are more expensive, a good rotary trimmer (Rotatrim) is what I prefer.

Re: [Digital BW] guillotine or rotary blade trimmer?

2007-01-17 by Ted Shaw

G'day -

Clayton's post about the Bogen dry mount press interests me because I'm going to have to mount over 100 photos for a museum project and I don't know whether to purchase a dry mount press or use spray adhesive.

Any suggestions about the Advantages or Disadvantages of each?

Many thanks,

Ted

  Hi Sarah,

  >You get what you pay for, I guess. Er, sometimes.

  Most of the time, in my experience, with few exceptions.

  I'm using a 15" Saunders RotaTrim that I got in about 1983 or 84. 
  After 20+ years of pretty regular use it works as good today as it did
  when new. It's one of the best hardware investments I've ever made.

  I've also got a Bogen model 510 dry mount press that's equally well
  made - anyone want one of those? ...long silent pause...oh well, sigh.

  Regards,
  Clayton

Museum Project RE: [Digital BW] guillotine or rotary blade trimmer?

2007-01-17 by Eric Neilsen

Ted, I would recommend talking to the curator BEFORE you mount and find out
what they want. I'd first look into a reversible heat activated material.
Are these for ink jet or other types of prints? 

 

I doubt that spray mount will be acceptable to the museum, but I don't know
the specifics of what they are for. 

 

Have fun. 

 

Eric
