The "French" Easel
Simon and Allan,
Here's my 1982 model self-built and designed portable field easel of mahogany (not such a great choice of wood, but hey, it still works). While it has some disadvantages, the one advantage it has is the adaptability of up to a 54 inch/ 135 mm canvas size. Most of my clients reckon it is some sort of antique now! Obviously it is well used and minimally maintained. Originally it had a tin liner inside, giving this "portable" easel an empty weight of 18 pounds (one of the disadvantages). It's still one of a kind.
