Handy Holding tool
Posted: Thu Aug 22, 2013 11:06 pm
I was going through my bits n bobs box tonight and came across some bits that gave me an idea.
Coen has a neat handle for when he's painting tank hulls etc, you've probably seen it in his videos or you may have something similar.
I found a couple of old transit bolts from a washing machine which I thought would go perfectly with the length of dowel from the bottom of a canvas wardrobe cover - so I cannibalised the wardrobe lol.
So I trimmed one of the washers/stoppers down a bit and cut a lenghth of dowel.

I drilled a pilot hole for the screw in the end of the dowel and stuck the larger washer over the end.

Then washer and rubber washer on the screw, Et Voila one tank holding spray tool


My thanks to Coen for the inspiration for this
