STRETCHING MY FIRST "TONDO" (round canvas)

I usually stretch my canvasses myself, but never did a tondo before. I have to admit, that I simply wasn't interested in working on them yet. But in November 2023 I exhibited at at fair, and my booth neighbour showed some tondos in huge sizes, they were about 180 cm in diameter. That was when I start to think that that I had to try it.
Of course I want to stretch myself, so did a bit of research and found some - for my first attempt I ordered 3 pieces, each 130 cm in diameter. I decided to start with this smaller ones to see if I can handle them, also to see if I manage to unstretch and "deconstruct" the frames for shipping. First part worked well, the stretching was much more easy as I thought, I think I needed about 20 minutes for the first.
