My second paint shaker shook itself apart today (the first one I had I burned the motor up after allowing it to shake too long).
I wasn't about to go looking for a new one so I took the back plate off and had a look.
The problem was the glue for the head gave way and then vibrated off causing the shaft to fall down inside where I couldn't reach it. But being the prepared wargamer that I am I had the foresight in planning ahead for just such an instance. No serious student of our little hobby should not have the following in their inventory...
After a little dab from each tube it was a quick few seconds to fix and problem solved. Though I am waiting till tomorrow before I try using it again to give it a chance to harden well.



A paint shaker! I had no idea those were even available to the general public. Sadly, at my house I am the paint shaker....
ReplyDeleteLove the J B Weld though. That stuff is great!
