Is it just me who has problems with portable easels???I sometimes feel I need a degree in how to put them up. PIcture me, crawling around the floor, trying to hold three bits at once , sometimes I look as though I am playing the bagpipes . String I have discovered is the answer to tie, in a triangle around the bottom of three legs.. This stops the whole thing collapsing and either braining my near neighbour or causing the whole class to leap up in fright thinking they have been shot. I have tried all sorts from fimsy cheapos, to reasonably expensive good name ones.. I have a little "donkey" ( only artists of a certain age will know what I am talking about)and it is great, just sadly not portable enough to gallup around the en plein air with. <div id="wrc-float-icon" style="position: fixed; z-index: 2147483646; left: 15px; top: 15px; width: 42px; height: 42px; background-image: url(safari-extension://com.avast.wrc-6H4HRTU5E3/ef481b00/images/float/grey-0.png); display: none; "></div>
