Making a Simple Mahl Stick Easel Attachment

Hiya guys, this here is the second part of the improvements I did for my easel recently, focusing on making the 'Mahl Stick' this time. (Check out the first part at 'Making a Simple Shelf Addition for Easel'). I've used a traditional mahl stick in the past with the padded end covered with fabric, but having to hold it in one hand while anchoring it to the easel or artwork while I worked (not ideal) was really restrictive and just made the whole process awkward and uncomfortable.. Needless to say I hardly ever used one..

Making a Simple Shelf Addition for Easel

Hi guys! This new attached mahl stick and extra easel shelf was so simple to make and has been such an invaluable addition to my studio since, I knew I had to drop by and post about it. Who knows it may help you make your own!.. To make things a little clearer I've made two separate posts for the shelf and attached mahl stick. This post focuses on the shelf.
