  • Trade Only supplier of narrow flat cuts with teeny locators?

    Posted by Gwaredd Steele on 20 September 2013 at 16:47

    Hi all.

    Having a bit of trouble getting some flat cut letters made with small locators. My preferred (& other) suppliers have said they don’t use the small locators, only ones that fit in a 13mm minimum letter stroke – but I know they can be had as I’ve seen them.

    Any ideas of a trade only supplier of this type of thing?

    Thanks,

    G.

    F C Moore mini locators are 8mm diameter x 13mm long

    We use these on our own laser cut letters for the really small text although finding screws to fit the tiny cups can be a challenge, particularly for plasterboard where you need longer screws.

    We have come up with a special technique for these fixings which I can explain if you want to PM or email.
