Yeah, I gotta talk to the Binkmeister. It's like he does this laying on a couch, LOL!
In the meantime, I modified his post.

Off topic, does anybody need a milkshake mixer?

I'll check it out as I have to drop by in an hour or two anyway.

I told you Frog you have saved many neckaches

It looked good on my phone. Cut me some slack I can just about answer my phone let alone post pictures.

I buy the gallon size mixers at Lowes. One for every ink and a few extras just because. They cost about 3 or 4 bucks a piece. I never worry about cleaning them because whatever ink they get put in is where they'll stay forever more. I leave the shaft full length because they also double as ink scoops. You can load quite a bit of ink on them to transfer to the screen.

Okay, so I found that cell phone blockers are not legal, but I am getting close to looking for a way to block cell photos!

Sorry about that Frog. It was the right way up when I viewed it.

Yeah, that's what they all say...seriously, I've had orientation change on my phone as well, and I haven't messed with it enough to understand when and why.
It has to be something to do with the fact that the forum (and our monitors) are not equipped with gyroscopic orientation compensation like the phones are.

ok so i guess im stupid but what is a brazing rod and where can i find one? ive been trying to find a good mixiong tool

[jvanick]

Brazing rods are available in the welding section at your local home improvement store, welding supply store or harbor freight.  Make sure you don't get the ones that are coated in flux.

You can also get 1/8" steel rod in the raw materials section... that stuff works really well too.

I get my brazing rods at my local welding supply.  As mentioned, you don't want flux coated, just plain rods and thick enough to not too easily be bent.  What I had in my picture is about double the thickness of a traditional coat hanger.

do u have problems with the ink running up the rod?

[screenxpress]

I guess if you ran the drill really really fast, but I stir as if it was paint, just a bit thicker. 

Not too fast and that way I can raise and lower in the bucket to get a good mix.  I've not experienced a run-up.

I use a hand drill and since I'm a small fry, I only have quarts.
