Our Outback Pochade Box, with its large pro tray mixing area, is ideal for all you pastellists.  I went through my pastels the other day and checked it out, it looks like the tray will hold about 80 full sticks.

It comes with a 40cm easel wand to hold your board that easily attaches to a standard 1/4 inch camera mount on your tripod.

Price: $420 plus a $25 flat-rate postage within Oz.

The weight is 1.50 kg, and the overall size when folded is 40cm x 30 cm, and it is ideal for your backpack.
