Giant Easel

Made this from red oak, it will hold canvases up to twelve feet high and ten foot wide. The wench will lift up to 300 lbs. locking wheels. Tilts forward for pastels and back for oils. The kicker is my wife never uses it,she likes to paint better with her canvas flat on a table.

Ps. It was finished with Waterlox, first time I used it and I think it’s a great product.

Wow! Bill that’s one amazing easel, who ever it was made for must be a real serious painter, great job.

Heck, that thing should make even me into a painter. Nice, nice, nice.

It’s YUUUUUGE!

Nicely done.

Mighty fine job you did. You built a Behemoth of an Easel, well done.

What a unique build. Some serious engineering went into that beauty.
