These antique stretcher bars have been reduced in size, by about 6" on the short side and 10" on the long side.
12 sections have been cut out (8 from the outer bars and 4 from the cross bars) so we can keep the original adjustable corner joints. The cuts have been glued and joined using two oak dovetail keys in each joint. Next comes the cutting down of the frame.
