Hi all, just thought I'd introduce myself as I'm new.
I'm a north London based furniture restorer (30 years experience). I mainly French polish but can repair most things and will tackle just about anything that comes my way. General repairs, wood turning, water gilding, welding, electroplating. You name it.
I'm just wondering if anyone knows of any suppliers that still stock steel slotted screws, or mahogany wood mouldings? I've been buying up any slotted screws I find for the last few years as they are gradually disappearing, I can't use pro drive for the sort of work I get. Also It would be handy If anyone knows of anyone still making mahogany mouldings like, cockbeading, astrical beading and the like. I make it up myself when needed but it would be handy to have some in as it's time consuming to produce and wastes my valuable hardwood timber stock. All of the suppliers I used to get this kind of thing from seem to have stopped carrying it or gone out of business.
Thanks.
