I took the plunge and bought a graphics tablet, an Aiptek 14000U Media tablet. It's a pen only not a touch tablet but I didn't especially want a touch one. It's a fairly big one at 420 x 300 x 16 mm total size with a working area of 305 x 185 mm in widescreen or 242 x 185 in standard mode. It has 34 programable macro keys and 5 preset "hot keys". It took me 3 mins to load the driver program then when you plug it into usb it worked straight away in Gimp, Inkscape and CorelDraw (and it comes with full version of Photoshop Elements 10 ) It's the first time I have used a tablet and found it so easy to use it's unbelievable. It was on special offer at Amazon.co.uk for ?66.50 instead of the ?79.50 they wanted for a Wacom. I played with it this afternoon for 3 1/2 hours using Coreldraw and made my first pattern. There is loads of room for improvement, but I was pleased with the outcome for a first attempt.

Thanks for the info, but I think I'll stick with Mike at http://www.mikesworkshop.com/blades.htm as he only charges $3.50 per doz for FD UR blades or $31.50 per gross. Looking at that site the blades are ?5.00 per doz. I think I'll save money and still have the excellent service from Mike.

I get mine from a local timber merchant, it's not Baltic birch just plain birch ply, but I get the "B" grade or "BB" grade, the B grade has no blemishes and very few knots, the BB grade is not as good as it has a few small blemishes and knots, but anything of size is repaired with an inlay. These inlays dont bother me as they always go on the back of a portrait, and i've yet to have a patch both sides in the same spot. He doesn't keep the birch ply in stock but he orders it in for me and it's usually in within 3 - 4 days.
So far, I have not found anyone that can get me Baltic Birch ply in the UK.
Hope this helps
Keith.
