Randal.
Great job. That looks fantastic. 2 questions. How did you cut the mat for the record? How did you affix the record? Mark

LOL I figured someone would ask that.
They sell a mat cutter for circles. It does a good job but you have to cut from the front of the mat. So you should put something down so the mechanism doesn't leave rub marks on the mat as you turn the circle. You need to go around a few times. I found it online for around $50 I think. I lost the website, just search circle mat cutters. I used some 3M command adhesive tabs for hanging stuff on the wall. You pull the bottom part and its supposed to release. Anyway its a double sided padded type of tab. I put it on the run-off part of the vinyl. I don't think it was bother the record but then again I don't really care. Supposed to be like a post it type thing for walls.

Really nice Randall! Great color choices and layout. I've seen that 3M tape before but didn't think about using it. I might just have to rethink that!

Yeah I'd use either that or try and find that gummy stuff they attach credit cards to the paper with. Like a rubber cement.

I found the site where I bought the circle mat cutter, less than $50 which is cheap.

My newest pickup in a trade from Gnaz.(Thanks Greg)
I always wanted one of these, but they always seemed to come up when I didn't have the money. Worked out a great trade for it. Here is what it looked like when I got it. Ty Cobb check I don't care for the PS cards framed, so I removed the check and downloaded/printed a print of one of my favorite Kreindler's to go with it. Here is what it looks like after I reframed it. The outer black mat and fillet came with the frame. I toyed with using a more simple large double mat, but I think the extra layers really make it pop more. I think a bit more fitting for the "King of Swing" ![]() Best, Mark
