John stretching

John Connor had a couple of stories to share about the creation and use of his new stretching tool.

No he is not going in for limbering up exercises in preparation for the next olympics. He is however stretching canvas for his daughter and preparing the canvas for her artistic endeavours.

He has sought the assistance of our innovative welder, Alan Sparkes. Together they have created the tool you see here which is a clamp with extension pieces welded on to grasp the canvas and a lever piece to provide the leverage to achieve good tension on the canvas.

A very successful collaboration!!
