The design and construction of your easel are critical to your work.  First there is the wood that is used.  No question, Oak is the finest.  Because Oak is so hard, screws and glue seem to hold forever.  Beech on the other hand is so soft that the screws will loosen over time and cause the easel to shake and vibrate.  Oak is also one of the most beautiful woods that nature has given us.  Many other woods are used from time to time, but Oak is and has been the preferred wood for hundreds of years.
