Do all Long Arm Frames have their name on them?

I purchased a used Tin Lizzie 18 LS with a frame a couple years ago. I'm ready to put it all together now but all I have is the few pictures I took of the frame before it was taken apart. The frame has no manufacturer name on it at all. Do any of you have any idea what wooden frame manufacturer would leave their name off? I have looked at Lizzie sight and none of their frames look like mine. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Check out the hinterberg.com website. They have 3 different wooden frames. I have a hinty stretch frame and there is no name on it.

I believe Tin Lizzie has different frames - some metal and some wood. I had an Ansley 24 (Tin Lizzie) and my frame was metal. Sorry.

I would contact the company for an instruction manual on putting the frame together. My Gammill came with such a book, so hopefully TL has instruction manuals, too.

I had a Grace frame (wood) and it wasn't marked. share your pictures and maybe one of us will recognize it.

I had a proflex frame and it was unmarked. Does yours have the bars with it? Are they the big conduit parts? If you could post a picture of the parts maybe one of us could identify itl

I had a Tin Lizzie and the frame was an Inspira model, manufactured by Grace. The frame was steel but the rollers were aluminum. Can you post pictures of the parts?
