Hi Jean,

Richard and I were just teasing each other. Our intentions are merely to help you. I think you need to differentiate between pulley systems. Some pulley systems are crank dependent. The Hughes and Sorg easels are both counterbalanced. With the Hughes easel you can alter the weight so that it's appropriate for your painting. That is the key. You can move every Hughes easel up and down and on all but the basic model left and right with very little effort; literally the touch of a finger, which is why I thought it would be most appropriate for you. The only effort involved is getting it set up, which I hope you can get help with. Of course this would be the case for any easel. Once set up you will be amazed.

Your courage and determination are inspirational.
