Reply To: How and where do they get the Parchment for Sefer Torahs?

most klaf nowadays is machine processed, not ‘stretched between a wooden frame etc.’ That’s why if you look at the klaf of new sifrei torah you will see a diamond pattern which is the pattern of the metal grid the klaf was dried on. Also I’m not sure it’s still done with lime (which is quite slow). The old style klaf is becoming difficult to get hold of and does provide a better writing surface.
