I'm thinking about making a decorative folding screen & was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on the dimensions I'm considering. I'm thinking of building each section to 2'x6' using a 3/4 in. thick oak frame and a suspended canvas panel, with 1/4 in. thick oak latticework on each side of the panel for decoration & to help brace the frame. My question really relates to the frame thickness - does 3/4 in. seem thick enough to be sturdy at 2'x6'? Thanks for any feedback!
