Dear David,

I have had wonderful results using panels, for paintings up to about 32" x 40" (yes, they get quite heavy any larger). I have been using tempered masonite 1/4", or 1/8 " if small, and gluing my Belgian linen to the smooth side.

I use an archival bookbinder's glue that I mail order from DEMCO, in Wisconsin.I believe they have a web site. Let me know if you can't find contact info, and I will look it up for you.

Good luck, Chris
