Original Message "RE: portable fresco panel" Posted by Macrina on 04-Apr-08 at 12:53 PM Dear Ilya, Here I am a year later, and I still am trying different things for this problem. I now have a series of panels ordered which are all largish( 20x24, 12x18, etc. ) and am trying to work out a method. They want to be framed, but no glass. I saw this website link from France- http://www.atelier-st-andre.net/en/pages/technique/fresco_technique/portable_fresco.html#Anchor-La-6934 Has anyone tried welding their own frames to plaster into? What does that involve? Is that conceivably a DIY thing, or would I need to call a machine shop? I like wooden frames, but there needs to be something to attatch it to.. Any other ideas? Also, they mention a lightened concrete. Has anyone tried this? It also says they don't make it in the US, but when I spoke with a contractor, he said he does use something which sounds like that on floors. I only use portland cement in the first coat, but what about it??? Thanks so much!!
