Abstract
A canvas stretching and framing device upon which canvas or other sheet material may be stretched includes fixed corner sections and straight sections. The fixed corner sections ensure the squareness and rigidity of the device while simultaneously allowing for easy adjustments in order to maintain the canvas in a taut condition over the device. The straight sections may be easily cut to any desired length, which allows for easy adjustment of the device's size. The corner sections may include a plurality of protrusions which engage a plurality of cavities formed in the straight sections in a way that forms a continuous perimeter upon which canvas may be stretched.
