Pine does do that it was the same when running through the moulder/planer spent more time cleaning cutters and blocks than running the profile we could make something in Tulip Tulip has the least of the timbers in de gassing/acid migration and is very stable- not too expensive either A bit more than...

using mdf might be an issue from an acid migration point of view

it is highly acidic and could stain the canvas later on
I do agree with prospero that it would be quite bendy so an extra centre support would help that but could add to the time you may save

PM me and I may be able to help

just like dave, I would have charged £30 per hour and taken two hours with a tea break.

you have to love Ikea. no matter how good or bad a framer you are- Ikea makes us all look amazing!!!

it may be Rose and hollis A160
