Beau and Kara Studios- Episode 87- Tips on Making Wall Easels 

Love the easel, love the simplicity and clean line 😍

I looooove your easels! I have the same shape of the room in my studio and had no idea how was I going to make it work ! thank you!!

Thanks bro!!!! You’re awesome!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Making plans for a studio and your video was spot on. Thank you.

Thank you, amazing design

Thanks I made 7 prior to. The lock washer was the thing I missed out on so that tip will help the most

JUST... AWWWWSOME.

Smart stuff. Thanks!

Sooooooo Good! Thank you!

verry helpful, thank u verry much, Sir❤

Excellent tips! Thx :-)

thanks~ really helpful

Perfect! Thank You. I've been looking for the best idea. This is it! Now if you can make folding oil paint storage units that would be fantastic. Psst, (whispers) don't forget to do a video on it so I can do it here.

The 1/4” screw. Could that possibly be a T-bolt? I used the same star knobs with the t bolts on a sled I built for my table saw. Fantastic easel build! Best I’ve seen to date.

I visited your website. You and your wife both make beautiful things.

Wow around 1:25 I see it- by far the baddest assed wall easel that i can actually build without. Professional woodshop😅 Bravo my man!

Hi Beau, loved ur easel altough would love more detail on how it was actually made? As in thickness of the wood used and dimensions ect. 👍🏻

Hint use a large rubber washer behind the handles and they won’t work loose over time.

5:42 But am already home!

Compare to other YT videos on this subject; This one proves that accomplished Carpenters deserve Bachelor degrees in mechanical engineering.

I like that design but what does it look like from the back? I see the nuts you used but what do they screw through? Is there another piece of wood in the back? Also how did you cut that line in the wood?

Nice easels! What hardwood did you use?

Do you have tutorial for making those easel?

Great video. I gather you are using the lock washer in a rear bolt head/washer/lock washer configuration? It is digging into the wood? That is a bad idea, it will really scar up the wood badly. Then when you go to adjust your easel, it will not want to settle where it should because there are trenches on the back. Plus as you said, it does work all the time, as the washer would bite into the wood, maybe hold the washer in place, but the bolt head will still spin. Lock washers are normally used on somewhat crappy assemblies that rattle to death. Say the axle of something being held onto a cheap bike, wheel barrow, lawn mower. Well made products use properly fitied fastening. You don't see a lot of lock washers on high end guns or bikes. But the hardware store does not sell fitted parts, you need a machinist for that. And it wouldn't really solve your problem. When I made my easel, while not exactly the same situation as yours, the handle was in the back. What I did was make a 3D printed washer that held the bold head perfectly, and had a bar in the washer that fitted into the slot. For people who do not have a printer, a little T block with oversized holes that you glue the bolt head into with epoxy, will do the same thing. That way the bolt can't spin, the pressure is even, and the wood will stick nicely to the rest of the wood, yet slide smoothly also.

Thank, but youre not actually showing how you made them. Great ideas though.

Bro nothing could see
