Bonwyke Forum Day

Right just back on the island after a nice ferry journey. Would like to say thamks to Nik and the guys at Bonwyke for a good day. Was nice to meet fellow tinters and put some names to faces from here!! Thanks to Matty Cox for showing various examples of methods. I must say i have always used the micro edge method, but after seeing the finish on the roll ups with a file, its the way forward for me!! Thanks to the guys i chatted with you know who you are, and thanks to Nik for the goody bag (and the other bit ) I enjoyed the day

Cool. It's always nice to hear about when the members get together. Did you get any pics?

Nope but Nik from Bonwyke was taking some so i would think they will be up here a bit later!! Its good to meet other tinters and talk tinting!! We all seem to do things in different ways but its good to see other methods and tips to try out some you will use some you wont!

Yeah , it was a good turn out, nice people came to Bonwyke today, good day had by all...

Many thanks To Nik, Chris and Doreen for the organisation to get the day up and running.

I'm not very familliar with a lot of the techniques on here, what is the micro edge method compared to the file?

Micro edge there is a few mm gap at the top of a roll down, when its filed its a few mm over but then filed back to the exact curve of the glass to give it a "factory" look, hard to tell that a film has ben applied, it looks much better without a doubt, takes it up, one notch in my view. Where are you from you need to fill in your profile?

Thanks for the info. I'm from east Tn.

East where? Not the UK then??

Sry, East Tennessee. No not the UK

Just got home about an hour ago, thanks to Nik, Doreen and the rest of Bonwyke for a good day and Matty for some great tips. I won't mention them, keep them to yourselves, we now have the edge

Great to meet all you fellow tinters out there and put a face to the name, good to talk business and find out techniques and stuff. You should have my card so it'll be good to keep in touch fella's.
I'll be off to the local hardware store tomorrow for my bits I found out about today and then I can put them into practice but Ssssshhhhhh........ I ain't telling what they are!!! Those that we're there will know what I'm on about

Gutted i couldnt make it today... For once im gutted that im flat out....
