Title: Steve's paint mixer / what the heck is it?
Post by: Gabby on May 26, 2011, 03:00:46 pm

Steve I just watched you paint mixer gizmo, and I'm still grinning and chuckling. Pretty neat idea, they say necesity is the mother of invention, I've always contended it was the lazy ones who came up with things to make work easier. You have just proven me wrong. It's pain that is the spur to improvise, Who knows some day my elbow may give out.
BTW I seldom shake a can for more than a minute, just too lazy and the paint gets of the job any how. LOL

I'm sure it isn't ballanced perfectly so flying apart would be likely.
Also if it turned too fast the little mixing ball in the can wouldn't be able to go end to end and mix the paint. You can hear it in the video.
