Convert A Canvas Stretcher Into a Permanent,

"Quick Attach" Painting Board

This technique is well worth the effort if you use watercolours or pastels and attach painting paper to a board

using strips of tape, or clip them to the board. This drawing board will save time by attaching more quickly to

the easel

You will need the following:

- A cheap, lightweight wood framed canvas stretcher 20 inches x 20 inches (60cm x 60cm)

*You can also use a canvas stretcher 20inch x 16inch (60cm x 40.64cm) and use only two T-Bar arms

to connect it to the tripod Hub. (Try to use a canvas without any support struts at the back)

A piece of 3mm thick Melamine covered board or plastic panel board (or any similar rigid thin board

with one surface to which you can attach tape that can be easily peeled off after painting).

Small tube of silicone or general-purpose glue from Bunnings stores in Australia and Hardware Stores

in USA

� One piece of Melamine board 53.34cm

x 53.34cm (21 inches x 21 inches)

NOTE: If you prefer you can make your

board size the same size as the canvas.

� Spread the glue on the board, making

sure to stay within the pencil guidelines,

then lay the canvas on the board. Press

down all over the canvas

� Weight the back of the canvas with

heavy books to help set the glue on the

board. Leave overnight to dry

*For information on attaching boards and canvases, refer to pages 10 to 14

� Lay canvas face down on back of the

board and centre it. Mark with a pencil all

the way around the canvas frame so you

will know where to position the canvas

later. Remove the canvas.

� When the glue has dried attach this

"painting board" to your easel in the same

way as an ordinary canvas.

More Ways To Lock The T-bar Arms Into

� By placing two T-Bar arms into the four vertical archways on the Hub,

sometimes reversing pointed rods and maybe adding a third T-Bar arm al-

lows you to attach smaller canvases. Experiment and see if you can discover a

new way of attaching a canvas or board. If you do find new ways to use your

Artristic easel, we would love to hear about it. Send us a photograph of your

custom easel setup and we will forevermore identify it with your name! The

perfect way to prove those wrong who said you would never make a name for

yourself from painting

� Round or oval canvas

(canvas removed so you can see how the T-Bar arms attach to the back

of the frame)
