Never heard such nonesense. CMCs (computerised mount cutters) are becoming more popular, but any competent professional framer should be able to handle boards up to 3mm

Any slight overcut I've managed to make invisible with the use of a good quality burnishing tool. As a matter of course I always burnish the window matt.

Paul, regarding your problem with thick mounts, have you considered double mounting, using two standard thickness mounts of the same colour, with the outer window about 5mm bigger allround than the inner? This might give you something of the "luxurious" look that you are probably after with thick mounts.

This is good practice. Best to lay a shet of paper down and burnish through it, it stops the board going "shiney"
