Everything about Strainer Bar totally explained
A
strainer bar is used to construct a wooden stretcher
frame used by
artists to mount their
canvases. They are traditionally a wooden framework support on which an artist fastens a piece of canvas. They are also used for small-scale
embroidery to provide steady tension, affixing the edges of the fabric with push-pins or a staple gun before beginning to sew, and then removing it from the frame when the work is complete. Strainer bar frames are usually in the shape of a
rectangle, although
shaped canvases are also possible.
A stretcher frame construced from
strainer bars shouldn't be confused with one constructed from
stretcher bars. Strainer bars are fixed to one another with
wood glue,
nails or
staples, often in conjunction. Strainer bar frames are often reinforced with other fixed elements such as corner and cross
braces. These frames are not built to accommodate the insertion of
tightening keys into their corners to further tighten the canvas stretched upon them as a stretcher bar frame would.
