Hi
I have a good HVLP sprayer in a box in the workshop that rarely gets used but when it does works very well.
One of the two reasons it rarely gets used is that it requires very vigorous effort shifting the laden gun about to get the perfect pass. It doesn’t seem heavy at the beginning of the day but by the end !!!
I am considering building an articulated arm, 3 straps of ply hinged to concertina over the range of space we use to spray in with a pulled cord attached to the hook on the gun and a counterweight rising and falling where the arm is attached to a wall well out of the way.
Has anyone done anything like this and if so what hinges did you use?
Jim.
