Longridge is to use Focus as a launch pad for some major additions to the mount cutter range.
The blade is core to any good mount cutter. Without an excellent blade, all the bells and whistles and clever extras are useless, so Longridge has introduced its own bespoke blade, developed in association with a world renowned, UK blade manufacturer. Head of the design team, Christopher Longridge said: "We are delighted with the design and performance of the new blade. Cutting technology is advancing rapidly and we work hard to make sure we keep up with the best the industry has to offer."
Also new for 2007 is the Longridge SprintMat, a section of laminated board that encourages the blade to continue in the straightest line possible. Another British innovation, it provides the ideal base medium for the new blade to cut into.
Another introduction from Longridge is their new multilingual DVD included with every Longridge Mount Cutting System. The DVD explains in detail how to cut a professional quality mount easily and accurately using any of the Longridge Systems and also gives lots of ideas on how to develop interesting mount designs.
Longridge will be at stand F29 in Hall 9 at Focus.
