I found a very useful video that i think would help our loco painter Steve.

Got to get me one of those!
It will be needed as I've not been in the shed since before Christmas - thanks PL.

Just attach the bottle to an ordinary jigsaw blade with a strong elastic band wrapped round a few times, it's not a new idea.

For the record - it works.
I just happened to have one of those clamps in the garage. I had to file the end of the slide bar to fit and drilled a recess in one of the yellow pads to fit the bottles.

I use a similar thing to this and tape the tin/bottle to it. Vibrates very fast and there is far less movement.

I had the same thought WTD. However, I can see paint and other gubbins up the walls and all over the place knowing my luck.

Should have said plenty of tape.
