Construction Features

• The main frame and base of the easel is mortise and tenon construction, a time honored joinery technique to guarantee generations of use.
  
• All other frames are splined or doweled.
  
• The tongue and groove tracks on the sliding frames are precisely fitted and then waxed to ensure smooth operation.

Mechanical

• Main frame cranks up and down utilizing a 3-1 gear ratio. The 3/4" acme threaded rod allows smooth cranking.
  
• Tilting frame cranks out 5º beyond vertical.
  
• The crank handle for A & B is easily removed. A ratchet type ball-socket connection holds handle firmly in place while in use but allows quick disconnect.
  
• The clamping frame goes up and down via rope and pulley system. The use of a jamb cleat on the underside of the tray allows the clamping frame to be locked into a raised position until the painting is in place on the easel. Then the frame can be lowered to secure the painting.
  
• On the backside of the main frame this model features a tray that slides up and down manually locking into notched cut into a brass track (primarily used for small paintings).
  
• Locking ball casters provide flexibility and stability.
  
• A bronze leveling screw attached to one caster compensates for irregularities in the floor.
