The Stak Easel™, our flagship product, was introduced about 1950. It was developed specifically to answer the needs of art schools. It’s been regularly modified and improved, but the basic design a sturdy, well-balanced, rigid easel that can be “nested” for storage endures.
The easel accommodates work sized from about 9″ x 18″ to about 100″ x 72″. Made of 16 gauge tubular steel, it’s welded for strength and can support substantial weight. The moving parts are “captive” to prevent loss.
The Stack Easel™ is a genuine two-post easel.
The Barnesville Stak Easel™ was designed for multi-use studios. Weighing only 18 pounds, it’s easy for even small students to stack to reconfigure your space
Many easels support work on only a single post. They may have three posts, but the locking unit, the principal point of support, is on the center post. Both the Barnesville Slope and Stak Easels™ are true two-post easels, providing stable support at two points
The Stak Easel™ uses a pair of clips to secure stretchers to the easel. Adjusting individually means they readily accommodate asymmetrical canvases.
The tensioning knob on the support ledge of the Slope Easel is centered, but it tightens the interior steel bar against both outside posts for maximum stability. We think this simple design choice results in the sturdiest, most dependable easels available—our two-post easels can reliably support the largest and heaviest artwork.
