The Gilded Turd, Part XIV

powered rattle-can shaker. A powered rattle-can shaker is kind of silly
on the face of it, yet as an RCM'er I am not constrained by that. So,
when an old sabre saw showed up at the dump:

Very nice Bob. What holds the bottom of the can in the cup?
Don Foreman
Love it!
Jeff Wisnia
Nice job!
Is that black thing on the left a "switch holder downer"?
As long as you're is a creative mood, you could DIY this accessory to
mount on it. You must know someone of the fairer sex who might find it
useful when you're off on a business trip.
Make sure you check the "Directions" page....

Thanks.

My hand. That is, I balance it there. That way there is more of a
twisting motion as the bottom of the can goes back and forth while the
top is mostly motionless. Bob

Thank you, thank you ...

No, the saw as found had a sliding on-off switch that I replaced with a
variable speed one from another dump find (it's the red and aluminum
protuberance). The black is a housing for that switch. In use I just
keep my thumb on it.

stupid. I tried it one time.
I went to a school for the mentally challenged (retarded) which naturally
was full of liberal democrats and got one to pick the turd up by the clean
end.
I then directed the democrat to dip the scatological masterpiece into aqua
regia and applied an electric current. The democrat shook violently as it
was hard for it to let go of its playtoy -the turd. Instead of a quite
beautiful example of what comes out of a democrat's mouth, I got a true,
full of shit, democrat - nothing out of the usual.

Hehehe! That is both really idiotic and really good! :-))
I like it!

Hi Bob,
This just screams for a bungee cord to take the place of
your hand. Maybe an old paint can top with a bungee cord and
hooks attached.
Bungee cords, slightly more high-tech than good old rubber
bands.

Yeah, that would work. I'll put it on my list 8-)) Bob

Make sure that you don't try it with aluminum paint. That is
known to explode when mechanically shaken -- at least in normal topped
paint cans.
Enjoy,
DoN.

You should be ashamed of yourself for having a democrat where it
might escape. Besides- it's just more fun to put one on a piece of
cardboard and throw it off a high structure...

I never quite liked the idea of shaking the bottom back and forth - up and down shaking seemed better. So, the upgraded shaker:

angle - then the ball does it's job. If the can could rotate as well,
even better. At least on an angle the paint moves in relation to not
only the sides of the can or the bottom, but both.

sabre/jig saw at the dump. Google has a whole mess of hits for "rattle
can shaker". Maybe not so silly after all.

LOL Heck of a way to test seam integrity.
I like warming up my rattle paint with hot water before shaking. It
more quickly lowers the viscosity and makes the can more comfy on the
hand. The snap-on triggers for them are great, too...while they last.

Shake off all the fears of servile prejudices, under which weak minds
are servilely crouched. Fix reason firmly in her seat, and call on her
tribunal for every fact, every opinion. Question with boldness even the
existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of
the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear.

Maybe in another 12 years I'll rework it again. Oh, wait ... I'll
probably be dead by then.
