Paintersisters Stretcher bars set

Stretcher frames made from carefully seasoned and selected spruce wood, available in various sizes and offered in a cost-effective 2-piece set. All stretcher frames are equipped with crossbars, and the necessary hardwood wedges (2 pieces per bar) are included in the price. The bars are crafted very neatly, with ends featuring tongue and groove joints that allow for easy assembly into a stable frame. The stretcher bars simply need to be fitted together. It is essential to ensure right angles for everything to be straight, and finally, wedges should be inserted into the corners for a stable connection and optimal tension. Whether it's cotton, linen, or jute, in principle, all fabrics and even photo prints can be stretched over the stretcher frames.

Assembly: The stretcher bars are fitted together at right angles using the tongue and groove joints. The rear cross is assembled and connected with a staple, screw, or glue. The cross is then also connected to the frame, and the stretcher frame can be stretched. A tensioning clamp is helpful for this process. The canvas is secured to the wood from the back with a staple, and the bars are tensioned using the tension wedges. Bar depth is 38 mm. Bars for 2 stretcher frames, 90 x 140 cm.
