Stretch relief pliers working with a Omega 1.5 inch stretcher bar
I was able to reuse some of my older 1.5 inch stretcher bars that were made by Omega with the new stretch relief pliers. These bars are called a 1.5 inch bar, but they have a wider back side. This makes it a bit harder to work with the stretch relief pliers since they really need to hit the very back of the frame to get a leverage point and create a fulcrum. However I found that if I added just a bit more length of extra canvas, I was able to get a working solution. You can read more about my findings here:
