UPDATE

I now make and sell a wall-mounted easel system. The Tueller Wall Easels are much more refined than my original easel setup shown here.

You can view the wall easel features on this page. They can be purchased directly from our shop.

Back in December of 2012, I wrote about the do-it-yourself space saving wall easel I’d conceived and built for our art studio. Since then, I have received a surprising number of inquiries and comments about my design – some asking about how I constructed this or that aspect of the easel, questions about materials, hardware, dimensions, etc. Others asked if I had construction plans available for download or if I could build an easel for them… To those who have inquired about purchasing wall easels – I am actively looking into what it might cost to construct, package and ship easels similar to what I’ve made for myself. Please feel free to contact me if you’re interested in purchasing one.

The original ‘Tueller Wall Easel’ in my studio.
(Shown here with three masts, one tool tray and a hanging mahl stick rail.)

I’ve recently added an additional movable mast to my easel that holds a 19 inch lcd monitor on an adjustable arm and a shelf for a notebook pc. This allows me to view reference images while standing at the easel.

‘Tueller Wall Easels’ Others Have Built

What has been especially gratifying to me is the number of handy, do-it-yourself artists who have contacted me to let me know that they have built their own wall easels based on my humble design. Some have even been so kind as to share photos of their results. Here are two fine examples…

Here’s the wall easel built by Alexis McCarthy.

Here’s the wall easel built by Dan Bina.

Dan Bina – Brooklyn, NY (Dan’s blog) More of Dan’s work can be seen here. Thanks Dan and Alexis! I’m super pleased to see that my original post has helped others to plan and build their own easels. Any other do-it-yourselfers who’ve built one, please send images of them and I’ll share them here.

I am adding my admiration for your wall easel design! Wondering if you have completed the PDF available for instructions? Unfortunately I will be making this myself. Put me in the ‘starving artist’ category, ha.

Thanks so much! With this I will be able to have a fairly complete studio in the tiny spare room!

Hi Brenda. Thank you for the compliment!
I’m sorry to say that I do not have downloadable PDF instructions for the wall easel. Indeed it has been my intention to make instructions available for a basic, low cost easel. However, making and selling the wall easels has kept me extraordinarily busy. So the plans have been put on the back burner. My apologies.

Please message me cost for something similar to the Dan Bina easle. I would need it shipped to AL. Thank you kindly.

Hello Rasah. I have added you to the product availability notification list, so you should receive an email when the next batch of wall easels is ready.
