What is a tufting wood frame used for?

This material will easily withstand the pressure exerted by the tufting gun . To meet the needs of everyone, from novice to expert, different frame sizes exist. Beginners will start with small frames, 70 cm x 70 cm, in order to perfect their technique, but also to save time and energy for the finishing stage.
