Important info if you are framing our skins

If you are making a frame for our skins its best to get a standard size that is mill cut.  
Mill Cut will have the best square ness and dimensional tolerance. 
Make sure your framing can handle the tolerances stated!
Standard Mill Cuts are

12x18   18x24 

 20"x30"   2'x3' 

 30"x40"   3x4  

 4x5  4x6  4x8


Repacks and printed skins to left are mill Cut in bulk and have tolerances of
 +/-  .015" or +/- 1/64 
These mill sizes are the best price but leave room in your frame design

Custom sizes can be mill cut if willing to wait 4-8 weeks extra and you need at least 500 pieces
 

Hand Cut standard sizes

 
9x12     2'x2'     4x4
 
The standard sizes to the left are hand cut and have a tolerance of

+/- .188" or +/- 3/16"

they will be hand cut unless its a long lead time time mill run of 500 + pieces where they will have mill cut tolerance.
hand cuts are much more expensive than standard mill sizes so its best to use a standard when you can
 If we hand cut our blanks we cannot guarantee absolute square ness and while we try to keep dimensional tolerance to +/- 1/16" you may get some at +/- 3/16"
 

Custom sizes hand cut
 from
Standard Mill Cut pieces
All custom cuts of stock sizes unless mill cut on large long lead time run,
are hand cut and adhere to a tolerance of

+/- 3/16"
**hand cuts are much more expensive than standard mill sizes
so its best to use a standard when you can **

also cuts must be a minimum of 1/4"
for example we cannot make a 24x36 to 23-7/8
If inside frame is 23" you should order 22-13/16"
 If we hand cut our blanks we cannot guarantee absolute square ness and while we try to keep dimensional tolerance to +/- 1/16" you may get some at +/- 3/16"
