I got tired of trying to find a place to set my spray gun down and repeatedly kicking my pressure pot. I was watching a TV doctor show which gave me an idea- so ordered this. It is a standard IV pole. I got a new one on Ebay- it was cheaper than a used one from the local medical supply store. It is not real heavy duty but should do the trick. I'll put a barbel weight on the base if it needs it.

Re: Spray rig helper

Good thinking! I love when a good idea works out. As long as you move the pole and not pull it by the hoses, it should work nicely!

I have got to get one of those.

Alan, I am assuming this is HVLP. Is this a conversion gun? How does the compressed air hook ups work using a pressure pot?

This is a Binks Mach I HVLP conversion gun (an Ebay steal!!!). Air is just connected to the pot. Right now I adjust air to the gun at the wall since I don't have a mini regulator on the gun. The pot has a built-in regulator to keep it pressurized- I keep it set to around 6-7 psi. I like the pot- I can get the gun into smaller cabinets more easily and can oriented in any direction since there is no cup hanging from it that must be held upright.

Neat Alan!
But forget the barbells. How about an electric motor/drive assembly on the base and a remote control. :cool:

You can do it :icon_thum
