An upgraded version of the MABEF M-02 Lugano Studio Easel, this version features all the benefits of the original M-02 plus a convenient crank mechanism that makes adjusting the working angle easier. Constructed of beautifully oiled, stain-resistant beech wood, the MABEF M-02 Studio Easel is an artist's dream. Designed for larger canvases, the canvas holder height is adjusted by a crank mechanism, and there are two extendable center poles for stable use with canvases up to 92-1/2 inches. The poles and canvas are locked in the desired position by tightening a screw in the rear. The large utility tray with two side storage drawers are perfect for holing and storing artist materials. The sturdy base is supported by four casters and leveling bolts for easy movement and safe use.
