VBA Easel Plans

These are instructions for a DIY easel I designed.  I was tired of flimsy and backward leaning easels that were cheaply made.  I decided to design my own inexpensive easel, but with the features I believe promote good painting.  The easel materials cost about the same total amount as a $100-$140 easel found online, and you will have to build it yourself, however the results will be much more sturdy and position painters more effectively and comfortably.  The easel also folds flat for storage.  The instructions are a PDF.
