Details:
- Size/Weight: Measuring 11″x14.5″x1.25″, the large u.go pochade box is ultra lightweight at 3.15 lbs, with palette included.
- Materials: This pochade box is made using Baltic Birch wood, while stainless steel and aluminum accents provide strength where needed most. All hardware is non-corrosive.
- Wood Finish: The Baltic Birch is hand sanded, and finished with New Wave’s proprietary wood finish for maximum durability. The finish is non-porous, dense, and resistant to water and standard artist solvents and mediums. In addition, the finish is crack proof, chip proof, and non-yellowing.
Features:
- Magnetic Components: Strong rare earth magnets are used for the closure, panel/canvas holder, removable side wall for palette cleaning, and accessory side tray attachment.
- Friction Hinges: Sturdy 180° range of motion to position the pochade box as vertical or horizontal. Horizontal set up is perfect for watercolor painting.
- Tripod Mount: uGo Anywhere Pochade Boxes are compatible with universal 1/4″ tripod mounts.
- Palette: A high density plastic palette is included. Oil paints can be removed with solvents, and dry acrylic paint peels off. A tempered glass upgrade is available in grey or clear. Paint can be stored on the palette when the lid is closed thanks to a recessed palette and recessed lid.
- Recessed Storage Compartment: Located at the rear of the palette, a recessed storage compartment measures approximately 9.5″ x 1.12″ and 0.88″ in depth with a closed lid. Use it to hold brushes, paint tubes, wet paint, and more.
