- Many modern easels attach to camera tripods using a quick release plate. You can make a much secure mount if you buy an additional plate and screw it semi-permanently into the base of your easel.
Sample from the instructional video "How to Make a Sketch Easel"

Thank you so much Mr. Gurney, this is the one I need now. I love painting, and I wanna try plein air, but the preparation was always an issue to me.
The quick release plate I had for my camera (I do a lot of recording while I paint, mostly for personal reflection) had a video pin which scratched the base of my camera. I have a wooden easel I got, mostly because standing up stops me from getting so much back-pain. I'm a programmer by trade, you see, so there is only so much sitting at a desk I can take in a day.
Nice little tutorial. I'm an artist myself and I hope to be as good as you one day.
James if youdrilll through any thing remove drrill bit from the drill take a slightly larger drill bit and gently nround the edges off of the hole you have just drilled MIT's called counter inking this will allow the crewheadto bed into the fitting so it becomes more flush with the nsurface. Hope this helps kindest regards Mick T
I had a quick release plate with its original screw/tightener fallen off. So i just use a long bolt with a wing nut at the end through the pre-made hole. Just thought this might be a good tip for people who dont got the tools :P
KaiKudo can you share a link to the photos? (-:
Interesting)))
Love the intro, thanks for the vid :)
thanks so much!
Amazing intro
Thank you
Going to have to make a sketch easel!
I love your videos, how do you fix your cleaning jar on your easel?
Can I get an actual disc of the "How to Make a Sketch Easel" as I have trouble with getting the downloads of things. Let me know if that's possible. Thanks. V.
Yes download is on his website $14.95
Nice I like these tip video.#JameGurney.
👍🏼
I would buy DVD if it showed how to make the steering wheel attachment.
Well....now that I spent hours planning, finding, buying and installing what I thought was an easy thing....the stinking T nut I’ve destroyed one box, created a mess and wasted precious hours of my life I can’t get back.
Drill four holes and screw the dang thing down....duh I’m done for the night, thank you, I’ll finish in the morning.
Sorry you had a tough time with that. If you don't need the flush mount, a top mount like that works perfectly fine.
Bueno
Please whete i can buy the Quick release plate?
Here's a link to a PDF with a linked list of all the supplies: www.dropbox.com/s/1obdpgg0mfm4dcq/Sketch-Easel-Materials-List.pdf?dl=0
