Securing D links on floating frames
Posted: Fri 14 Jul, 2023 10:55 pm
Hi there new here and find the questions and reply’s very useful.
Can I ask people’s thoughts on how to secure the D links on floating frames. I have seen a lot of frames where the d link is attached to the floating frame with a short screws that are screwed into the frame alone. My concern is the weight of the frame and canvas is now being held by the frame alone.
Does anyone recommend using longer screws that attach to the canvas frame as well. This way the weight of the canvas and frame is being picked up by the canvas frame - ie no load at all on the floating frame.
