Getting it just right, as with any endeavor we undertake, involves time, practice, a bit of frustration, and a whole lot of perseverance. Steve, who has been building his own stretcher bar frames and stretching his own canvas for many, many years, has created a free video of the process, Stretching Canvas: The Tools, the Methods, the Know-How.

With that being said, lets go stretch some canvas!
