    Old paint roller stuck in a base. JUust hacksawed it down to the right height and stuck it into a thick board. A liuttle crude, but it works!

    "The rooster may crow but the hen delivers the goods".

    Never heard that one before - gonna add it to my collection. I'm just happy that this little gadget brings a smile and perhaps will be useful to someone.

    This was my laugh for the day, thanks. It took me a few seconds to figure out what it was. Then I read your message with it. So funny. Never would have thought of it.

    Love it, love it, love it! And thanks for sharing - we all have those frustrating times in our lives when we ask another to help and it takes forever to get results.
    Just hope it was his favorite paint roller you put to use! ;)
