Richard, I had initially placed an order with Don for a Hughes easel at the end of August, but when I didn't hear from him by mid-October I finally went ahead and ordered a Sorg easel instead. Don did finally call me toward the end of October or beginning of November to say that he was ready to begin work on my easel, but I told him that I'd had to buy another one. I'm sure I would have loved the Hughes easel if I had been able to get it in a timely fashion, and of course I understand the impact that two hurricanes would have on a business, but I had already sold my main easel and needed to replace it. I'm very pleased with the Sorg and especially like the tray, which works well for the way I like to paint. I also like the fact that the Sorg has a smaller footprint and doesn't take up as much room in my studio.
Thanks for giving me an update, though.
