StewMac's Painting Fixture

I built this BCG HD-28 over the past winter. Hip replacement surgery, a wickedly cold spring and oppressively hot summer delayed the painting process for me. I paint outside in my garage. Anyway, the weather has finally allowed me to finish this project. This stand rotates 360 degrees and allows you to apply a complete coat of paint on the body in "one shot". This significantly reduces the time required to apply a full coat ( at least for me). No more waiting for the top to dry before painting the back etc. It's a great tool especially for the rattle can users among us.

I mounted the fixture on a base (a pallet) w/ball type casters, a 6"x6" post w/a small vise to clamp the fixture. This allows me to easily rotate the fixture so the overspray is directed into the exhaust fan. The post also has a vertical pin that fits the guitar holder so you can spray in another orientation.
