Elizabeth asked me to build her an easel the other day. She wanted to set up an art studio on her room so I figured I'd give it a try. It's not very complicated. I cut a rough-cut 2x6 I had lying around into 3 pieces, cut the outer two ends at an angle (I just free handed it on the table saw) and bolted the three legs together.
Turns out, she wanted a table-top-sized easel, so she was a little surprised when I hauled this monster up to her room but she took it in stride and starting painting immediately. I guess it just goes to show how two people can talk about the same thing but at the same time can be talking about completely different things. (In the software biz, we call it agreeing on the requirements!)
Once again, this is one of those projects that I was able to do with materials I had on-hand.
