3D™ Pro 2.5 Stretcher Bar • 1/2" Canvas Clearance

1/2" Canvas Clearance is the space between the Bar and the canvas. Generally speaking, more clearance reduces the risk of the canvas touching the wood and creating unsightly lines during painting. Our design provides the optimal clearance so as not to impact your painting, but still leaving enough wood to the maximize strength of the Stretcher Bar.

• Produces a 2.5" deep stretched canvas (Actual depth is slightly thinner)
• 1.25" wide Stretcher Bar
• All Bars have an exclusive groove on the inside perimeter of the frame to which cross braces and Diamond Corner Braces attach
• Solid Ponderosa Pine or Fir from the Pacific Northwest

Finger Jointed Wood is not meant for Stretcher Bars

Solid wood makes the most dependable Stretcher Bar, because one homogeneous wood member is going to behave similarly across the entire length of the Bar. Whereas, with finger-jointed wood is made-up of multiple pieces of wood, sometimes on the actual joint itself, presenting multiple points of failure which no one can control.

We only use Solid Wood to build our Stretcher Bars because a solid piece of wood will last indefinitely. When we speak of archival value, it's not just the paint you use and the quality of your canvas and ground, even the wood choices manufacturers add or reduce value to your final painting. The fact is, you don't want problems, and finger joints only increase that risk of the wood falling apart in the future.

The glue used to bind finger joints is a water based adhesive and when that wood is exposed to high humidity environments, particularly with exterior walls, the glue joints can give-up. As a manufacturer, Masterpiece® does its part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

Sustainably Managed Forests Inhale and Exhale

The world's forests are essential to human survival. Forests inhale carbon dioxide for the earth, and exhale oxygen essential for life. When we speak of the sustainable forest strategy of ensuring that more timber will exist in the same forest land than exists today, this is the only viable plan for the future of humanity. For this reason, we use only lumber from the sustainable forests of Oregon, Washington, and California, where thereÕs more standing timber today than last century!

Critique by creating. ♦ Michelangelo

A titan of the Renaissance, Michelangelo believed not just in the act of creation, but in the transformative power it held. A chisel and hammer were not mere tools for him; they were instruments of expression, capable of carving out his deepest thoughts, feelings, and critiques into marble and fresco. In a world where criticism abounds, his stance was clear: rather than simply voicing dissent or disagreement, manifest it through tangible creation.

It suggests that the most powerful form of critique doesn't lie in mere words or theoretical debates. Instead, it emerges when we take to our canvases, sculpting tools, or other mediums and get into creative action! Every stroke, every hue, and every texture becomes a testament to our perspective, offering a tangible alternative to the status quo.

The act of creating is also an act of defiance, a way of pushing boundaries and challenging conventions. Michelangelo's philosophy inspires us to not just speak but to act, to not just dream but to manifest. In the cacophony of critiques, let our creations be the loudest, most vivid voice.
