Review on Masterpiece Artist Canvas Vincent Stretcher by Michelle Langley

WOW! What cheap quality. I've been an artist for 30 years. Decided to try this product. By nature, this is complete bullshit. Corner joints don't even run flush together. There is a moon shaped gap between them because they weren't carved straight. The gussets also don't line up with each other, meaning the horizontal bar is about 1/8 inch higher than the vertical bar. Cross brace meets half lap joint. The joint is NOT (HALF) as thick as it SHOULD be! Instead, it's too flat, causing it to bulge/bend in the frame. In short, you have less than a ¼ inch gap between the blade and the staple. Good luck painting with the block of wood rubbing against the back of the canvas. In short, save your time and the hassle of repacking and sending the tape back. YOU'RE WELCOME!
