Building Canvas Strechers

There is an art to constructing your own canvases. I've been building my own for many years. Over time I have found the best process and the right tools to put these together and I would like to share this with you.


Highlights in this online demonstration are:

     Laying out the Stretcher Frames
     Properly Connecting the Wood Stretcher Bars
     Bevel the Stretcher Frame
     Adding Support Bars in the Back
     Stretching the Canvas over the Stretcher Frame

I hope that you find this helpful. Stay inspired! David
