Damn it! If you were the fella that just sold the radial easel in Hull for £15 I just missed the boat 'cos I was focused on painting a couple of badgers. Curses... but on the bright side I did get _my_ radial off ebay for a fiver in the first place. Yours would have been a second... and my wifes response was "where are you going to put it?" asked in that pointed way that means the answer needs to start with "not in the house obviously...". I must admit to a having something of a fetish for easels... I just like them. They're the sort of thing you can buy 2nd hand and renovate. Restoring them back to useful life by applying linseed oil, varnish and other good stuff. You get to use the sanders and tools collected over the years... and even better you get free shed time. Anyone with some huge H frame easel with castors that wants to sell it cheapish? Can be in any state, I'd look after it. Anyway check out the badgers.
