🔨 Easy DIY Assembly

The ends of each stretcher bar are shaped to interlock with matching bars, allowing you to assemble a frame without complicated joinery.

Simply:

1. Select the lengths required for your frame
2. Interlock the corners to create the wooden frame
3. Position your canvas over the assembled frame
4. Pull the canvas evenly around the edges
5. Secure the canvas to the back of the frame with suitable staples or fasteners

Your canvas should be larger than the finished frame so there is enough material around each edge to wrap around and secure at the back.

🖼️ Creating Larger Canvas Frames

Need a canvas frame larger than the individual stretcher bar lengths?

You can create a larger support structure by building multiple smaller frame sections and positioning them together to form the overall size required.

Each smaller section is assembled normally using four stretcher bars. Multiple sections can then be arranged side-by-side or in a grid to support a larger canvas.

Example configurations:

• 50 × 100cm frame
Create two 50 × 50cm sections side-by-side
→ 8 × 50cm stretcher bars total
→ 4 packs of 50cm bars

• 50 × 150cm frame
Create three 50 × 50cm sections side-by-side
→ 12 × 50cm stretcher bars total
→ 6 packs of 50cm bars

• 100 × 100cm frame
Create four 50 × 50cm sections in a 2 × 2 arrangement
→ 16 × 50cm stretcher bars total
→ 8 packs of 50cm bars

You can also combine different available lengths to create rectangular sections.

For example:

40 × 100cm overall frame
→ Two 40 × 50cm sections positioned side-by-side.

📌 The stretcher bars are designed to interlock at the corners. They are not designed to connect end-to-end to make one continuous longer stretcher bar.

For larger projects, make sure your canvas is sufficiently larger than the overall finished frame dimensions so there is enough material around the outer perimeter to wrap and secure to the back.

Product as described. However I didn't realise that it was actually shipped from China. Because I wanted this item quickly I thought it was coming from SA.. anyway it came damaged on one frame(it was packaged in a flimsy plastic satchel with no protection). The seller kindly did a partial refund.
