Mountmaking Forum ›Alternative for felt or sueded polyehtylene

Hello arthandling friends,

does anyone of you know a good alternative for black coloured sueded polyethylene or felt? Both materials did not pass the Oddytest at the KHM vienna so we are searching for a good alternative that is nonskid and made from materials that are non organic and are able to pass this Oddytest! I would be very happy for suggestions, thanks,

Manuel

    Jool Tool

    Discussion 
    I've been watching videos of the Jool Tool . Has anyone tried it? I'm always looking for ways to make my workflow more efficient and wonder if this tool would help speed up my finishing time. Happy holidays, my fellow mountmakers! Laura

    Discussion 
    The Coes Wrench is such a workhorse for shaping mounts. I got this beauty off of Ebay. Is it weird that I keep walking around with it for no reason?

    Discussion 
    Greetings all! Tomorrow is my last day at the museum and then I'm out in the void! I've seen some photos floating around of oddly shaped fire brick forms for supporting weird or irregular brazing setups. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Not sure what to search for so I can't seem to find them. Any leads would be sweet. Here's a snap shot of similar forms...
