                Fed up with hand shaking paints to get the smooth consistency needed.  I tried this and it works great for me and now use it all the time... https://www.youtube.com/...aI&feature=youtu.be

                Brilliant idea, and so cheap to do! Thanks for sharing Alan, I think of few of us will be using this method in future

                Nice conversion, but for those that don't want to make it, a purpose item from Robart is available which also has a 240v spec.. https://robart.com/produ...haker-electric-100-240v

                This does exactly the same job but cheaper https://www.amazon.co.uk...bart+hobby+paint+shaker

                Paint stirrers on the market which are cheaper still.. https://www.jadlamracing...0gVqEAQYAiABEgLYPPD_BwE

                Both are still a lot of money for something that can be done by hand. I find a few twizzles of a Tamiya paint stirrer does the job fine.

                My take on stiring paint is that its slower, less effective, even if you add a ball baering and its somthing additonal to clean Inwould rather spend the pennys and save the time for building things rather than pinch a few quid and lose time to prep and clean up “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” -Mark Twain
