For future referance, wrap newspaper around the stretcher first before stretching. Sounds like a blood spot dried to the board, sometimes a yard stick pushed up there will free them.

dead, he have no board, he have fux stuck on wire. Try the towels, then try the famed squeeze the stretcher 20 times, then bang nose on floor, then get serious and start shoving the fur from the bottom up, then down and up then down till it breaks loose.

He's off/Thanks for help,squeezed stretcher,wet towels and some cussing is all it took.Maybe I should invest in some boards and use wire stretchers as tomato stakes.
