How to Build a Pochade Plein Air Painting Box!
I used an Eylar Hard Case and built a pochade outdoor painting box to take out on my plein air trips! This video shows you how to do the same! You will see me build the interior creating space for supplies, the palette that hinges and leaves room for a palette garage (see materials list below), and the panel holder and wet panel compartment. There is a place to hang a wash can and the knob works to also hang the trash bag. This box is also equipped with a tripod attachment. I’m quite pleased with the outcome of the project and I’m relieved at its sturdiness.
Below, I have included links to the Amazon products I used for my box. If you click on a link and purchase the item, you won’t pay any more than the item’s regular cost. I will make a small amount from Amazon for each sale.
Supplies I used:
Forstner Bit Set for Wood Drilling

You will also need a sturdy tripod with 1/4” screw plate attachment.
This is the tripod I use but there are less expensive brands. The tripod
for this box must be sturdy however.
