Framing mdf, by bigbaddom on Jan 2, 2017 14:52:25 GMT 1, Hi

I bought a piece by xenz which is painted on 18mm mdf

It's massive - from memory a full sheet so 2400 x 1200 ish

However it's not in the best shape and isn't flat etc.

As it's on mdf do you think screwing some batons to the back to flatten it would be overly frowned upon?

Also any ideas for framing would be appreciated or even who if anyone could tackle it....

Or ideas to do it myself would be good too

Thanks

Framing mdf, by Deleted on Jan 2, 2017 15:58:35 GMT 1, is it the charity piece done pre 2010 ? For get Dring Mobile?

getdringmobile.wordpress.com/gdm-urban-art-event-14th15th-october-paintworks/

or another link with better pics

bristolgraffiti.wordpress.com/2009/10/16/get-dring-mobile-the-photos/

That was nicey nice

I had the Jago one

I just screwed it to the wall using the holes in the wood

Framing or other things is hard work :-)

(If it wasnt that pic, then i don't know, havn't got a clue, not an idea, nada, not a thing)

Doubt it would hurt the value. I would just hang it as is, dings and bends and all. Doubt it would hurt the value.

Framing mdf, by maxamaxa2 on Jan 2, 2017 16:29:34 GMT 1, Putting it in a "normal" frame profile where the glass use to go might work?

Made a quick sketch of what I mean below, where the black is the frame, the yellow is the mdf and the green is wooden blocks screwed into the frame. Might need some cross supports depending on the mdf-shape but should go without violating the mdfs personal space

Framing mdf, by bigbaddom on Jan 3, 2017 12:40:51 GMT 1, Thanks! For some reason I was thinking of a much more complicated solution of using a U channel with the correct amount routed out.

This seems simple enough!

MEMBERS • Please Post & Share Links to New PRINT RELEASES and Auctions below

rparducci • That's a good idea ,have you got any pictures of what exactly you meant? Was thinking of maybe ornate in red too? What are your thoughts

ollie123 • @

Daniel Silk • We are getting some very encouraging stats on the forum this week as I continue with the board and threads changes.

zatarro • Looking for artwork of ROA. If someone has art from this artist to sell, please let me know. Thx

cdot • www.instagram.com/p/DCmJRlct3XV/?img_index=4&igsh=Mmc3MnZmajhkM3Fx

Daniel Silk • The number or Boards and Threads continues to fall as we simplify the layout of the forum.

Daniel Silk • I hear a lot of Artists complaining about Instagram in the past year, how it used to be a good tool for Artists, but it's not good anymore, is that true?

anyaart • For Brett Kern fans, I noticed there is a spinosaurus for sale on E-Bay. It's a limited edition, one of only 60 made. This is the rarest of his dinosaurs. I am not the seller. I already have the same dino purchased in 2016. I've never seen one up for sale

Dive Jedi • Get well soon, Daniel Silk . All the best !

Daniel Silk • Apology • Sorry I have been offline this past few weeks, due to a very bad Fever. I'm slowly getting better, step by step, and catching up with things here on the forum on the days I'm well enough. Thank you for your understanding.

Boy Wonder • I read that they were more or less nicked the same day they went up. Loads of fakes exist.

milou2 • Would love to see any photos of Banksy's first exhibition at the Severnshed in Bristol (2000). Who was there? *

jirr • Hi all, over here in the states. Pandemic put me out of business, need to sell this asap. Please send offers thanks so much

matgab • Steven Harrington - Gotcha first ed for sale.

1nkling • I can't help but think that a more reasonable tier for people who just want to support the work you guys do would raise more income. Then other tiers for those that want specialist benefits.

1nkling • As soon as I saw the heading for the email I thought 'Oh yeah, I use that place a lot. I'd happily support it'. Not at £40 a month though. I have a paid sub for a Formula 1 site I use that is very active. They have a high uptake on subs at £12 a year.

1nkling • Pricing on the new supporters sub seems a bit poorly thought out. £40 a month to have a pinned sale thread being the only listed benefit?

Daniel Silk • The forum now has more than half the number of Boards than it had a year ago! As we work towards simplifying the layout.

Daniel Silk • Become a UAA Supporter - urbanartassociation.com/thread/109961/supporter-urban-art-association

Daniel Silk • You might have noticed we are still working hard to reduce the excess of threads across the forum. We are down 10,000+ already.
