My custom easel

I am sure that many of you would like to place an easel in your houses. I feel the same, maybe more in my case because drawing is an important part of my life. So, until the devs will place that easel we saw in Artaeum on the furnishings list, I opted for a DIY version :smile:

The good thing about this design is that it uses a very cheap and available woodworking blueprint: Blueprint: Hlaalu Hanger, Mounted, which is about 200 gold on traders.
I recommend using an addon for precise placing and changing the angle precisely. The way I do it is to start the construction having the parts placed at 0/90/180 degrees relative to the coordinates of the house. After I am done, I link the components together and place the group as I want.

Here are two versions:

Type 1

The first uses 4 hangers:

here is an other angle:

Type 2

The 2nd design uses one more hanger, but looks better in my opinion. The front legs are tilted 5 degrees, and so the standing part. Only the back strut is perpendicular.
The upper hangers overlap at the base, right where each one has a nail. In order to prevent clipping, one is one coordinate lower and backwards than the other.

Back view with painting:

The painting is tilted 7 degrees.

I hope you will like my idea and find it useful!

    Love that second one, very nicely realized! Now if we only had a painting or so with "thinner" frames (or none at all....)

    I settled for the 2nd one myself. The 1st is the design I started with.

    @Sylvermynx yes, I don't think there is a blank canvas or a frameless painting of this size.

    I hope the devs will see the opportunity to add an easel, canvas, and more paintings, such as portrait paintings with the popular characters in the game (alliance leaders and much loved NPCs)

    @ZOS_Adrikoth Thank you!

    Those look great and have helped resolve a conundrum I had with how to vary the display of artwork in my Ald Velothie Harbor Bank & Emporium.

    Wow! Those easels look amazing! I've managed to cobble together a table easel that was acceptable, but never a standing easel... I'll be 'borrowing' your design for sure.

    Just today, when I was mutzing around in Elsweyr, I ran across this khajiit outside the Colorworks in Black Heights. This would be great - the canvas especially. In one of the buildings were empty easels and blank canvases - please devs, could we at least get the canvases?
