I use a stiff piece of uncoated welding rod and bend the bottom into an inverted triangle and stick the top shaft in a drill.  Spin off the excess in the bucket and easy to wipe clean.

I love the bend welding pipe. That looks perfect.
Do you guys think I could use something like this? https://www.amazon.com/Pneumatic-Machine-scenstar-Machine-Coating-Shipping/dp/B07GB51HH9/ref=sr_1_12_sspa?crid=V1HKD09AFHYG&keywords=ink+mixer+5+gallon&qid=1699300759&sprefix=ink+mixer+5+gallon%2Caps%2C101&sr=8-12-spons&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.f5122f16-c3e8-4386-bf32-63e904010ad0&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9tdGY&psc=1
I would love to be able to run this at low speed and be able to walk away for 10 minutes.
Thanks again for all the insight.

How is the container held in place?

Two questions about that mixer 1 is it strong enough to mix thick plastisol inks, (paint is already thin) 2 what's holding the bucket down, unless your going to stand there and hold it.

The paint mixer gets the ink moving pretty good in the bucket. I hold it between my feet, only mix for about 5 mins. Works well for me.
