3D™ Pro 3.5 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.

• 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 Wood is Archival - Finger Jointed Wood is Not

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 make are part of the archival process.

The principal reason manufactures use finger jointed wood is reduce cost, not increase archival value. Wood constantly grows and shrinks when the environment becomes hotter, or colder, or more humid, or more dry. Because finger jointed wood is made-up of multiple and varied pieces of wood, with varying grain patterns and densities, they each absorb and shed moisture at varying rates, which works on the glue joints that hold them together, causing the wood to bow and the joints to eventually fail, and certainly not consistent with increasing the archival value of your artwork frame support.

As a manufacturer, we do our part to conserve as much wood as possible, and still provide a quality made product that will out-perform any other in the marketplace.

Sustainable Forests for Future Generations

Sustainable forestry practices go beyond just planting and harvesting trees. They also involve careful planning, monitoring, and management to ensure the long-term health and productivity of the forest. By using lumber from sustainably managed forests, we can support these important practices and help to ensure that our planet's forests remain healthy and productive for generations to come.

22x85 is the Canvas Size Needed for this 12x75 Frame

Please note that you will need a canvas that is at least 10 Inches larger than the actual frame size to ensure proper stretching. This will provide ample material to stretch the canvas and attach it to the back of the frame. If you prefer to attach the canvas from the edge of the stretcher frame, you can reduce the size of your canvas by approximately 3/4" all the way around the frame. This will allow you to paint on the edge of the canvas and hang your artwork without needing a separate picture frame. And, if you ever need to remove the canvas from the frame and re-attach it, you'll have enough material to do that too.

The good God is in the detail. ♦ Auguste Rodin

The renowned French sculptor, Auguste Rodin understood the profound importance of meticulous attention to detail in the artistic process. Born in Paris in 1840, Rodin's journey to becoming one of the most influential sculptors of his time was filled with dedication and a relentless pursuit of artistic excellence.

His sculptures, such as The Thinker and The Kiss, are celebrated for their intricate details and emotional depth. His belief that divinity resides in the minutiae of art reflects his own artistic philosophy. Rodin's sculptures often captured the subtleties of human expression and form, and he believed that it was these nuances that breathed life into his creations.

As artists, we share in Rodin's reverence for the details. Our brushes, chisels, and pens are our instruments of devotion, allowing us to infuse our work with the essence of our subjects. In every brushstroke and carefully crafted line, we echo Rodin's sentiment that the divine can indeed be found in the meticulous attention to detail. It is through this unwavering commitment that we, too, bring our art to life, ensuring that our creations connect with the world in a profound and meaningful way.
