6 1/4" vs 7 1/4 frames
« on: June 27, 2014, 09:38:54 pm »
So, I have been moving to all medium equipment, and my existing medium boxes take 6 1/4" deep frames.  I ordered 100 frames lately, and ordered the wrong thing apparently, they are 7 1/4" deep.  Any one use these?  And why?

Make arrangements to send just the end bars back and exchange them... or cut them down... it's just a compromise between a deep and a medium just like the medium being a compromise between a deep and a shallow...
