Rather than using steel clips - I have successfully used oak strips (about
1/8" by 1") for my big frame (16x22 inches). Sure easier to find than
spring steel of the right dims. Each side of the split back has a raised
post (about 1/2") in the center. The oak strip fits into a groove in the
perimeter of the frame and over the post (bowing the strip with the convex
face facing the back of the frame. Works well.

Subject: Hardware for Contact Printing Frames
I'm looking for a source for hardware to make contact printing frames. I'd
like to make my own custom sizes. Can anyone point me in the right
direction. In particular the spring clips which tension the backs (or
similar systems)
interest me. Thx.
