Need source for custom stretcher strips...

[Dave]

Anyone know of a source who can produce custom stretcher strips with the corners routed out like Frederix's so that you can use stretcher keys?

Or, better yet, is there a machine or method you can advise such that I could produce my own using the moulding supplied by various vendors?

Thanks for your help.

Dave,

Another framer told me about a company in California that sells bars in custom lengths wholesale. I lost the info - maybe someone from the left coast could help with a name and number.

Thanks, Mike...appears ucsart can do the job.

Still would be interested in somekind of routing system to mak keyable corners if not otrageously labor intensive or expensive.

I looked to see if they have a website, but couldn't find. They used to make me VERY oversized bars for sets and props. 112" wide lined canvas too.
