    Default Little Artist's Easel

    Have been saying for ages that I would make one of these, so after some increasing pressure got to it.

    Picked up a sheet of blackboard from bunnings and the magnetic whiteboard from Office works. All the framework is made out of some old skirting board I found under the house. The 2 strips at the top and bottom of the blackboard are held with magnets to hold the paper flat.
    Few coats of shellac, and it was barely dry before being used.

    Great looking unit. I like the idea of the paper roll at the top to allow continuous use.
