We use plantation-grown Western Red Cedar sourced from Canada for both stretcher arms and any bracing lengths.
This is a traditional stretcher that is more expensive than other profiles. Due to its open grain and high resistance to changes in humidity, cedar is a lightweight and true timber especially suitable for large frames.
No brace is needed when both lengths are under 42'' (1066mm).
For lengths above 42" (1066mm) see our recommended bracing configuration in our FAQ
