What kind of glue boards do you need?

Community and Forum → Entomological collections → What kind of glue boards do you need?

Peter Khramov, 30.08.2013 13:34

We are going to sculpt dies in the Russian Federation. To make it cheaper than foreign ones. And always available.
Question:
Are there any options that you do not have enough from Czechs and other similar manufacturers? Size, shape, or whatever. Or standard options, which are always few. Or that are expensive, but you want cheaper.
UP: OK, it's clear with non-standard options, we do then instead of standard ones.
Entosphinx and the sea itself. If you select, for example, two dozen of the most necessary options (including triangular, pentagonal), then which ones are needed first, who thinks so?
For example, 13x8 triangular, 12x5 rectangular, etc...

Very good idea! I support you! And then pieces of cardboard, and they cost like pieces of gold.
As for the dimensions, it seems that you are already used to the standard sizes of entosphinx

Personally, I'm only interested in triangles. The size of the entosphinx is quite suitable.

The glue is more than 10 years old and is used to the standard sizes of dies, triangles, and pentagons. Here is the constant availability and lower price of points (with sufficient quality). Aren't you planning on buying plastic ones?

We also plan plastic / transparent ones. But with them, everything is still at an earlier stage than with cardboard.

Why waste your time on this? If you just like the process itself, then yes...

It is not clear why you need a transparent tri-pentagon ? it is also paper designed so that everything is visible confused.gifand the dies are enough (for me personally) 4 sizes from the Paradox. The main thing is that the thickness of large dies is sufficient to hold the needle well

05.09.2013 23:11, Peter Khramov

What do you mean — 4 sizes for transparent ones?

05.09.2013 23:23, Seneka

None at all. Dies are beautiful, but evil.

I apologize, I was distracted during the writing of the post 3 times mol.gifI wrote about transparent ones, although they are still (standard) too narrow.

I wrote about the" paper " above. I use the entire "model range" depending on the "object" from 11*4 to 45*16, with the exception of long narrow tc "staffs" do not collect (to each his own), although some are not bad for barbels.

Thus, my preferences match the available sizes in all their variety, and they will not be out of the overall picture.

The main thing is that the quality was! I can cut Whatman with scissors myself, however, since the early 2000s I have been buying umnik.gif

I will try to make a test batch of paper ones for the exhibition. If anyone is interested to take a look — you can meet there on Saturday where the thread is from 11 to 13.
I myself will only be in guest mode, without sales, so if you are interested in looking at new dies or some other small things, drop a message in advance in the BOS with a mobile phone or call the store and ask them to switch to Peter.

15.09.2013 2:11, Peter Khramov

There are still dies from the test batch. I'll send it for free for the test (pay only for delivery). Who is interested in bu-write to the BOS,

19.09.2013 22:03, Peter Khramov

Who used Kabourek dies, especially small ones — they are not too thick, everything is normal?

23.09.2013 22:54, Peter Khramov

In a few days, a serial batch of Lepstore dies in sizes 41x16, 41x20, 38x15, 30x15, 33x12, 28x12, 25x13 and 16x8 mm will be ready. By tradition, I will give it away for free for reviews (serial ones will be thicker/denser than test ones). Who is relevant-write to BOS.

I use it. On No. 1, they are perfectly pricked up.

Just kidding shuffle.gif
An excellent tool for "tipping" under the pin of thick dies and large beetles with hard elytra (zlatki, etc.).
It perfectly copes with such tasks (as, indeed, an ordinary sewing needle). I use it myself and recommend it to others wink.gif
P.S. And a thick die is good smile.gif

Sergey, similar to your options (1-2 mm difference) are available now — for more information, see in the topic about the store http://molbiol.ru/forums/index.php?showtop...dpost&p=1436619 and on the page http://lepstore.ru/catalog/s238
I already answered Roman about additional sizes above — When we collect enough reviews about the dies that are already available, we will make additional sizes based on the image and likeness (if the reviews are positive) or with adjustments (if the reviews are negative). So far, people have responded well, but not enough reviews have been collected for statistics.
As for the price — the entire October price will be 55 rubles. for a package of 100 dies, regardless of size. I assume that prices will not rise even after October, but this will not be known for sure until production of all (or most) sizes and shapes is established.
It's easy to see the quality — send me your phone number and a convenient time to call, I'll call you, and we'll arrange delivery of several packs of dies to you for free for a review.
Delivery of dies to Stavropol will cost 290 rubles (the courier will deliver them to the apartment/office) or 160-190 rubles. (you can pick it up yourself at pick-up points, now there are options for picking it up on Shpakovskaya Street and Dovatortsev Street).

Like a sheet of transparent plastic lined up, from which you can cut the dies yourself (if I understood everything correctly). Is this thread relevant to anyone? Who has tried something similar?
Sorry for the govnofoto, if you need some thread enlarged/improved, I can do it tomorrow. However, I think, who used it, he understood what it was about.

I would buy it at a reasonable price - there is a marking for the incision lines and the place of puncture with a pin. With a roller cutter (for photos), cut without any problems...

31.10.2013 20:50, sergey nyu

The other day I received experimental dies from Boris. I tried them out today.
On gloss beetles stick normally, but for large beetles, over 35 mm, the dies are still too thin. If in the future they will be thicker, I will be happy to take them.

01.11.2013 11:30, Peter Khramov

Yes, there are already enough reviews accumulated, although for some reason people persistently do not want to write to the product page :-- ) Large sizes will be made from thicker cardboard.

I got the sheets shown above. As expected, photos are perfectly cut with a roller cutter, no less perfectly pierced. Scissors, however, also not bad turns out))) In general, I liked it, I would like larger sizes.

It happens. I used to put Oryctes nasicornis and Prionus coriarius on the chopping block too..........
Then I took it off and pinned it on No. 3 wink.gifI don't understand.....

Although I mainly deal with butterflies, not beetles, I still think that gluing large and medium-sized beetles on a die is an unjustified pampering mad.gif, they only need to be pricked.

I glue archiplects on dies and don't worry.
Yes, I didn't intend to stick large barbels on dies, but it turns out quite well on the "tongues".
But the pin does not spin over time and the whiskers and paws are intact.
The second plus - you can soak it off. if the need comes.
In general, there are no friends for the taste and color.
Yes, I completely forgot - the more I use your dies, the more I like them. And the glue fixes the beetles well on them and the pin holds up normally.

And what is the main difference between a pin tattoo and a tongue sticker for the safety of sawyers and paws? confused.gif

Of course, in this case there is no difference, except for the preservation of the elytra. smile.gif

already knocked out plastic dies with rounded corners, so, not yet?

The tongue-triangle, imho (!), for the safety of the mustache is more dangerous than piercing, and it is more difficult to build aesthetic even rows)) Harder to spin under binoculars. However, I prefer - in order to preserve the natural shape, possible remounting and photographing. In the fields, sometimes pins rust, then with punctured ones-problems...((

And with the sticker of large-yes, it was already somewhere that this is an outdated Western fashion among merchants...
type punctured not quoted, loot-the reason, just something!

There are, but only those options that were previously available (foreign ones).

Where can I get acid-free cardboard identical to the one used for cutting entosphinx dies?

10.09.2014 21:59, Triplaxxx

Acid-free paper is sold in specialty stores for artists. Perhaps there is also a cardboard.

09.10.2014 10:14, Maks03

Good afternoon.
Please tell me from paper (cardboard) what density is better to cut dies. And where such paper can be bought.

09.10.2014 11:32, Peter Khramov

As far as I remember, it's a bit difficult to find a denser 350. That's what you need to cut from.
