Күн бұрынI watched the KZfaqr @sixtyfiveford make a super robust spray paint shaker out of 3” pvc and a plumbing test plug - but I didn’t have either of those materials on hand so I decided to assemble a FREE version to see how it performs. ↘️↘️Click “SHOW MORE” below to open the full video description! ↙️↙️

you Gave me an idea! One used large oil filter 3 -3/4 in nuts 1 matching threaded rod. 2 -Large thick matching washers 2 smaller thick matching washers 1 roll of electrical tape ( to put over the sharp edges Sawzall with blade to cut off the threaded end just enough to pull out the insides of the filter. 1 matching diameter drill bit And you guys can figure out the rest. It is solid! Thanks 👍

Use some large fender washers on both sides of the bolt up against the can, that will give you much more support at the bolt and keep the can from falling apart.

Thanks for this! I just made one. It's a super simple and quick build. Finding a can in my messy shop took the longest! I added one of those thin cloth can cozies to it. It slips in easily, but it holds the can firmly enough hat you can hold it upside down while spinning and the can doesn't fall out.

I made this and it works great. To secure the spray can use a wood shim. It locks the can in. A 2ft chunk of 3" pvs or abs at HD is about 20 bucks. Add a test plug and it's almost 30 bucks in feb. 2022 prices.

a wood shim is a great addition to this setup! Yeah the pvc version is expensive - but you'll never wear it out - all depends on how much spray paint your shaking up!

I think if you drill the hole slightly off-centered and also if you stuff some left-over sponge/rubber only on one side it will be quite wobbly thereby mixing the better better. One can also use large size washers and super glue to hold them in place. Just my 2 cents.
@GanderFlight Жыл бұрын
However, after using this with it as centered as possible - if you offset it it will wobble so much it will destroy itself and not be fun to hold while using.

@JoeNathan42420 2 жыл бұрын
The problem I've found with pvc is getting it centered on the shaft. I made something similar to 65 ford's but instead of a drill I used an old fan motor with a momentary switch that I mounted on my work bench. I ended up using a corn can an two big ass washers because every time I used PVC it would wobble really bad. I've never had an issue with the tin can after I put those two big washers on it and I've had it for almost 2 years

Nice! Reinforcing the bottom with those washers is key. Sounds like you've got an easy setup and therefore I'm sure you use it all the time!

This is genius. I have (what is probably) a stupid question though, does mixing the paint in the can like this actually work? I always thought the shaking had to be vertical, as in so the ball in the can travels from the bottom to the top over and over, to properly mix the paint? Has anyone used this for spray paint and it works well? Just want to be sure it does a decent job as I'm going to have to buy a power drill to make it and don't wanna waste my money if it doesn't have great results. Thanks for any advice and again, great video.
@GanderFlight 3 жыл бұрын
It works well enough- although I wouldn’t buy a drill for just this, so if thats all youll use it for I’d stick with handheld shaking. 😀

@@GanderFlight thanks for the advice, I’ll add it to my list of reasons to get a power drill and once I gather enough reasons I might buy one lol. Although where I live it’s cold most of the time so my paints require a lot of shaking

Brilliant! Keep the bolt's length as short as possible. It needs to fully seat in the drill chuck, but after that, extra length will lead to bending, and failure. If I hadn't already made one out of PVC Pipe and a Plug, I'd do this, for sure. Cheers!

@atariforever2002 Жыл бұрын
While this looks fun the centrifical force of the spin will just make the ball stick to the side of the can the entire time its spinning. The only descent mixing that is actually happening is when you stop the drill and the ball starts moving. And then its only the bottom inch or so of the liquid in the can. Just shake the thing by hand. If thats too much for you attach this to a Sawzall

James Bond knew the difference between "shaken" and "stirred" for his martinis (one method is clearly better). Spray paint cans need to be shaken for a reason. It allows the ball inside the can to reach the whole can (top to bottom) when shaken back and forth, thus mixing all the paint. The spinners that I see on YT that use a drill, all have the same flaw... they can only mix the paint that is closest to the ball, that is until the ball speeds up and matches the speed of the spinning can. That means the rest of the paint in the can is not mixed as well. A better tool to use would be a reciprocating saw, and there are a few YT videos about building a shaker with one of those.
@GanderFlight 3 жыл бұрын
I have seen the reciprocating saw builds too - I like those as well. After using this a few times I have no concerns however about the entire paint can being shaken up. Give it a try and see what you think.
