... I don't want a wood backer as it makes it too clunky for me.  Don't know of anyone else that does this but it saves me a fortune in 'backers' as the card is quite cheap from the stationers.

Many have mentioned in this forum, their use of a cardboard backer.  It is certainly easy and an inexpensive way to go.

For me personally, I feel the cardboard is not a stable product and over time will degrade and the backer fuction will be compromised.  

A two layer panel is also more stable and less likely to twist or distord do to environmental conditions.

Just my opinion.

Totally agree with you Frank, but sometimes I need quick, cheap and cheerful and this fits the bill.
