Teacher's Easel

I see where that would be handy to have in the shop. May have to build one for myself. Where did you find the marker board?

We use 1/8” white smooth finish paneling to replace them at our school. About $13-16 a sheet at Lowes and HD. It is not magnetic, and if you scratch it the dry erase marker will not erase, but the risk is worth the cost. We then usually frame them out in 1×4 and attach a tray at the bottom with some triangle brackets if we want to get super fancy.

Awesome, and your community of kids and teachers is now “richer’ for your work

Where I live in Ontario Canada, a province where the teachers, according to Govt., stats, are ruling out the pencil, in favour of “backslapping”....you passed “no matter what”, where teachers “Time Off” is measured in months, not weeks, where a teacher can start at 8:00 to 8:30 am and be done their day at 2:30 pm and that day starts with a 1 hour personal “lunch time” during their 6 1/2 hour shift and another “hour” to do prep work and have all health care costs paid in perpituity, an indexed pension and not one of them has the time to “coach” kids in extraciricular activities…...and can suck back 90 grand a year?

I’ld have to say that your contribution is outstanding and I mean that

Really great job on the easel. Bet she loved it!

We made one of these for a client once. The paneling at HD and Lowe’s will only last so long before it gents dingy and won’t erase. I called a local lumber supplier and got them to order me actual dry erase board. It will last much longer and only cost about 10 bucks more.

Nice job! That will last for years!
