Canvas Stretchers

Step 3 Bevel cut your length pieces

You should now have two pieces of wood at the desired lengths of your stretchers. It is now time to bevel cut them in half vertically. This will assure a tight, suspended canvas over your bars. Adjust the bandsaw to 15 degrees clockwise and align the blade so it is in the middle of the width of the wood piece.
Use the push bars for the last few inches of the cut to avoid proximity with the blade.
