 Features Common to All Palette/Panel Holders

PANEL HOLDER

The panel (or canvas) holding arms are spring loaded and will hold your desired surface from the sides at a minimum of 5 inches horizontal.  The arms can easily be adjusted to hold a much larger piece.  The minimum and maximum horizontal holding capacities are listed below for each size.

8 x 10:      5 inches to 15.5 inches (horizontal)
10 x 12:   5 inches to 17.5 inches (horizontal)
11 x 14:   5 inches to 19.5 inches (horizontal)
12 x 16:   5 inches to 24 inches (horizontal)

There is not any vertical limitation to panel or canvas height when using our original and patented spring arm design.
MAIN PALETTE MIXING AREA

We use the highest quality of Baltic Birch for the palette mixing area.  Each size of Palette/Panel Holder that we offer will have a different size palette mixing area.  The MAIN PALETTE MIXING AREA is listed below for each size.

8 x 10:       9 15/16" L X 7 3/16" W  X 5/8" D
10 x 12:    12 5/8" L  X 8 3/8" W X 5/8" D
11 x 14:    14 1/8" L  X 9 15/16" W  X 5/8" D (pictured)
12 x 16:    17 1/8" L  X 12" W  X 7/8" D
TRIPOD FITTING

Every Palette/Panel Holder that has been made by Open Box M since 1989 will have the regular 1/4 inch, 20 thread count tripod fitting that is located on the underside of the palette.  This is the same fitting that is found on the underside of most cameras and this is the fitting that allows the device to be attached to any regular, sturdy camera tripod. 
SIDE PALETTE EXTENSION

Every Palette/Panel Holder comes with one Side Palette Extension that can be attached to either the right or left side of the main palette mixing area.  The extension serves as a shelf for brushes and palette knives and also can be used for more mixing area.  We supply Front Palette Extensions and additional Side Palette Extensions for more shelf space and mixing room. 
SIDE SUPPORT ARM

Our patented and adjustable Side Support Arm slides to the rear to give solid support to the panel holding surface.  Unlike "torque" or "friction" hinges, the Side Support Arm will not move once it is engaged.  The arm will easily adjust from an angle of 90 degrees to completely flat and will always give very solid support (when used correctly), even after many years of use.  On the two smaller size Palette/Panel Holders (8 x 10 and 10 x 12), there is one side support arm on the right hand side of the device.  The two larger sizes (11 x 14 and 12 x 16) will have a side support arm on both sides.
