U-Go easel review part 1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ส.ค. 2021
- Here are my unboxing and initial thoughts on the U-Go Plein air easel by New Wave Art. It seems like a well-built and versatile easel. With the glass insert and side expansions, it is not the lightest but should work well for hiking and painting. I am taking it on a two-week painting excursion in Glacier Park to test it out. Check out the Part 2 video to see how it worked.
(This is not a paid-for review in any way)
It can be found on most online retailers or directly through them here:

My name is Kenneth Yarus and I am a painter from Montana. I love to get out into nature and bring my paints along. I am hoping to share my adventures and how I paint with the world. Thanks for watching!

Love the pill box idea for paints so will use that❤
Great explanation ,thank you !!!
O my God! The pill thing is so smart!!!!!!
Hey Ken, Good to see you! Nice job!
Hey Howard! Thanks for the comment and checking out the video. :) We miss you up here in Montana!
Did you do a post-use follow up? I'd love to see what you actually thought after using it on a trip.
Whoa, great review Kenneth. Post seeing you on Andrew Tischler’s podcast, I’ve started to follow you and by gosh, I’m goin to utilize those med containers for keeping my paints in. Great job, thanks for sharing, Lead on!
Thank you for following along :) Andrew is THE MAN! I was so honored to be on the podcast. Im glad the pillbox was a useful hack!
Very nice review! First time i saw the med. container used to store paints. Awesome hint! You have a new subscriber :)
Thank you! Yeah the pillbox is a easy hack to save some mess! Otherwise I use painters tape put down on the palette so in case I forget it is easy to clean up later. Thanks for subscribing that means a lot!
Really appreciate it but still love my day tripper!!! Again thanks buddy
I'm with you! I have been using the day tripper for years and really love it. Hard to top!
Nice review! I have the mini-version of that pochade and I really like it. I also use a daytripper as my go-to easel. Kind of hard to top it. Looking forward to seeing more from your big trip!
Thanks for the comment, I know the day tripper really is a top of the line easel. I am glad you like the mini version of the U-go. I have found myself frustrated by the smaller boxes so I have avoided it but maybe I'll grab one!
@@KennethYarus Have you tried Michael Klein's Pochade Palette yet? It is really tiny/light weight but I've loved mine. Can attach it to a tripod like a small pochade or a hold it while painting.
@@fountatelier I have seen his video of that little fella- seems pretty efficient. I may opt for a James Gurney style watercolor set up for my very mobile work.
How heavy is the day tripper compared with the ugo?
@@Nigh7shad3 depends on the size of the u.go . The Daytripper palette is probably pretty comparable, maybe a little lighter. But you have to have a panel holder as well.
Pill holders ! Thank you 😂😂😂😂
Pro Tip ;)
Thank you for this! I've been using the Day Tripper, and it's good, but there's one single nut that, if lost, makes the entire thing unusable. (And the designer went all Q-Anon, and I'm averse to that). So I'm looking for a new option.
Hey Akicita,
Yeah the Daytripper is a great easel, I have loved using it. The little Ugo was pretty sweet too, I am going to work on my two week review here next. It held up great out there :)
you can get the nuts online if you want them.
You can always use your rubber bands to help hold vertical....thanks for letting is know it's made in usa
Sure thing! I hope they keep the USA made a priority but I know as demand rises companies can struggle to keep up.
Hi…did you try out the En Plein Air ADVANCED w tripod for acrylics? Backpack series….. waiting to buy something!
Hey Gina, No I have not tried that one just yet ;) Give it a go and let me know!
What tripod are you using? I'm struggling to find a decent priced tripod that's tall enough for me and without elevating the centre column for better stability.
Oh man I KNOW! Tripods are a pain... I am using a monfrotto one lately. I used an old hunting scope tripod for a long time and it really reached high but was heavier.
Where did you get the glass palette
I bought it off their website with the easel. I think you could have a piece cut from any glass or window store though.
So did you buy it or was it sent to you?
I purchased this for full price, no discounts or anything.
What size did you review?
This is the medium size one :)
would be great if you told us the weight, i can't see it from the video
4lbs how I had it set up! Sorry I also said the weight but not everyone speaks english and I am sorry for not having it listed. I hope you found a good easel to get out there with!
How about designing your own?
I have done that several times now-and I will just say I am better at painting than I am at building easels ha!
@@KennethYarus What I mean is, get a rough idea as to what best suits your needs and ask a local carpenter to assist you. Have the person make it, then you market it. Sounds fun and potentially profitable. Keep working, that's what's important above all else!
@@paulvest3157 There is a really awesome easel maker south of me a few hours I wonder if he would take custom work...hmmm
Thanks for the idea!
