Hi Philip,
It has been a few years since I was in the UK, but your mountmaker colleague would likely find these of use.

4D Model Shop http://modelshop.co.uk/

This one is in the US but does ship internationally.

He may also consider contacting people at West Dean College for more references. https://www.westdean.org.uk/

Hi all
I work at the BM – we buy most of our standard tools at the usual places – Screwfix, Axminster etc., and get most specialist materials etc. from PEL. We also scout about for more specialist tools and get them from a range of suppliers as needed. If you want to put me in touch with the mount maker I can advise them directly if that would help?
Thanks!
Leonora
