Does anyone cut and mount their own mats in the Austin area?
I have been getting 11x17 prints lately. Can't find any frames in town and Hobby Lobby started to chareg .50 a cut for Mats, thats $4.00 plus mat cost to cut one. Was wondering what every else is doing to mount inkjet prints.

$100 will get you a mat cutter from Logan at any Michael's or Hobby Lobby or Aaron Brothers.... its not hard to use with a little practice and there is a video inside to show you how... you can buy a BIG piece of mat board for what they want for a pre-cut mat.

I could help you out if you lived in Houston. Let me know if you're ever up for a road trip.
