I am looking for a custom frame builder here in Florida! Does anybody have any leads? Thx
Were in Florida? its a big state I can drive all day to get out
What type of frames are you looking for?
Well, I am near you guys, right here in south Tampa! I am looking for some one like Colter frames in Salt Lake City. I used those guys when I had my shop in Montana. The do a super job, but the freight to get them to Tampa makes it impossible. So I am hoping to find someone around here who specializes in just building frames for upholstery. I am not very optimistic there is anyone around here from asking around. I have a lead over in the Miami area, but it is hard to get a hold of him and his cuban english kind of collides with my german English so it is hard to communicate. So I don't think I can afford to be to picky about the location as long as I find someone who does that kind of work.
see you said frames I though these frames

I only know enough about canvas work to stay away and let the pro's do it! I stick with furniture.
There are still some frame companies in North Carolina but it's been so long I really couldn't give a recommendation.
I've dealt with this company out of Va. with good luck. They can ship knocked down.

thanks Kodydog, I ordered from them before as well. There frames are really nice, but they don't do any custom stuff.
