A Frame model AB

A Frames are the workhorse easel, simple, strong and with minimal moving parts. They offer good support but always tilt back. All my A frames have a bolted high friction hinge that has no free play and gives great stability. Mounts are fully and infinitely adjustable with two turn to lock knobs using a strong vice grip.

Please note: I can send fully assembled easels (Glued and screwed) to Melbourne Metro, Sydney/Adelaide for only $20 extra per package. Other areas are a very reasonable premium on the above prices. You are only paying for the extra cartage cost. Up to 4 fully assembled easels fit in parcel for same price IE it costs $55 to ship 4 fully assembled easels to Sydney.

When easels are sent to a private home please advise a secure place where the parcel can be left, if no one is home. I can usually predict when parcels will arrive in Metro areas however this is not 100% accurate and cannot be fully relied upon. My carrier will not leave a parcel without instructions to do so.
