With all due respect Richard this just isn't true. I have a Hughes Easel. I am a pretty skillful woodworker, yet I couldn't begin to approach the quality and efficiency of the Hughes Easel. Factor in the time I'd have to spend building it and it would cost me many many thousands of $$$ in time. Prior to purchasing this easel I had a custom built oak easel with a worm gear that I grew to hate more each passing day. It seemed I spent more time cranking that painting. Now I paint much more efficiently.
With the Hughes easel I can focus solely on painting. It's the last easel I would ever buy. Don has created the ultimate easel. I think that you couldn't find a better easel at any price. Maybe if you tell him your story he may be able to do something. Good luck to you Jean.
