I'm thinking of getting a Hegner saw, it's over my budget but I might as well get a good one and be able to do what I want. Cheers

Ok so just a quick silly question - from the designers I understand we only cut out the black bits (right), so if that bit is cut out do you put a black board or something behind the pattern once it is complete? Cheers
