Hi - my usual supplier of blank MDF plaques appears to have stopped trading and I am looking for a new supplier. Has anyone any ideas where I can source blank plaques in MDF. I have tried wooden plaques before but they can be a bit costly.
Any suggestions welcomed as I am getting a bit desperate now as the craft season is about to start.

Cheers

I know that Steve (Kipper Worlshops) sells MDF shapes - maybe you could have a look at his website and see if he does what you're looking for? I think his site is in his signiture and on his profile. Or have you though of making them yourself? I use MDF as a base for my mirrors - I buy the MDF in full boards and the cut the shapes out using a jigsaw (power kate, grrrr!!!!!). Hope this helps :)

Hi,

thanks for recommending me Kate.

Yep, I can cut out MDF blanks for you, no problem. If you are interested let me know what kind of thing you are looking for and the price you normally pay, I will see if i can sort a good deal for you.

Had a question about blank plaques. unfortunately we are unable at the moment to bevel them. A lady was looking for quite a large amount?. Is this the sort of thing you would be able to do?????

Hi,

yep I can cut out plaque shapes in MDF. We cut them on a scroll saw, by hand, we don't have any automated cutting machinery like the big boys.
As a result I am probably expensive in comparison, but on the plus side I can do smaller quantities (as well as large).

I can bevel the edges on say a 15cm sign for example, no problem.

Best bet is to email me.

Thanks for considering me.

Many thanks
Steve:)
