Today's How-To Tip

Post by mattcantwin » Mon Sep 14, 2015 7:38 am

I'm going to be painting while on an extension ladder and decided to hunt around for ideas.

This clip shows a great (and inexpensive) way to use a dowel to hold the paint can.

Yes Matt will soon discover both the dowel rod and paint are fakes.

That dowel trick looks so easy, even I could do it.

This makes me suspicious.

Hire a painter as it's cheaper than a hospital visit;)

Even, if I end up on the ground, impaled by a double-notched wooden dowel, it's still a good tip.

It's an excellent tip. Make sure someone's shooting video the first time you try to move the dowel and paint cans up higher. I predict that's when the hilarity will ensue :grin:
