hitachi wands are ment to be godly. a couple guys that paint miniatures from D&D/warhammer just hold the bottle on the top and turn it on. if it can make a girl squirt it should mix paints well LOL
Also those bottles were huge I only use smaller bottles with agitators, I bathe cheaper nail polish one and it works great a year later . I recommend that plus get beads that won’t rust . Or a couple small garden stones and cook them to sanitise them before putting in your paints of course .
You need to shake paint? Get a cheap Jigsaw off of Amazon, homedepot or wherever and shove an Irwin Microclamp into the chuck. $45 bucks or there abouts and now you can mix paint at 5000+ rpm.
You're just moving the paint pigments around at the same time. Some of the reviews show inconsistent mixing... The most effective way to break up the pigments and solvents imo is to use one of those Tamiya paint stick tools.
I could see this or something like it convenient for mixing bottles while your working , or like you mentioned put it on and walk away. I think it needs to be tied into a more stout base as a lot of energy seems to go into moving the whole stand. I wonder how well it would work for say a small batch of paint for a section, put in your thinner , and let it run. That is a bit tricky to nail it but math helps and would be a cool way to get that perfect shade without having to work with a lot of paint.
I thought about the Robart Paint Shaker, but I eventually wound up going with a vortex paint mixer, specifically a Typhoon because of so many having used them in the past and liking them. Oh, and it actually mixes your paints, although I haven't tried on anything larger than two ounce bottles.
My teacher of mr hobby paints taught me, you should NEVER mix thinner & paint & leaving them for months, the thinner will break the paint & degrade its result And maybe you should invest in tamiya paint stirrer, yes those thing looks expensive for what you got, but trust me, those sticks are easy to use because of its design, its not random thin alunium stick
Just use it for comedic relief. I still get a giggle out of remembering that. Not sure about the shake weight idea, you'll probably end up creating some sort of seismic generator that destroys your house.
This helped me a lot I bought beads that don’t rust . Always use 2 beads as one isn’t enough it will take too long. So thanks 🙏 I bought the cheaper nail polish one and use a couple agitators it works perfectly. I’d highly recommend getting the cheaper one I’ve had one for a year now and still works great .
I've seen a korean using one of those ultra sonic cleaners for that, I just don't know if it works with every paint, I believe it was Gaia notes chrome that he mixed
you could try an Ikea latte frother ( it's the same as the electric paint mixers, just sometimes a different nib). I see most people use those and you can get it for < $20
Cleaning empty paint bottle Buy empty paint bottle, mr hobby provide 15ml, 45ml & 75ml Some 3rd party brands that newtype stock up, thin plastic bottle with ball bearing in it 1. Cleaning paint bottle is a chore, but you can buy similar paint & use the empty one as stirring cup, which overtime cleans it & you don't lose any paint leftovers 2. Dedicated bottle is quite expensive, when you consider you can buy paint instead, but these are very easy to clean with your finger 3. Those 3rd party bottle are good for large amount of work, they are impossible to clean, so use it on paints you will use regardless of what you work, like surfacer or gloss black, surfacer is mandatory if you recolor, gloss balck are mandatory for metallics
I always thought this thing was bullshit. Who mixes paint by slightly turning the bottle one way and the other? If anything could make it work better, it would to SLOW THE HELL DOWN.
i use the hell out of mine, im in a different but sim hobby space than you and i have literally hundreds of paints, so mine gets sued a lot but there is def better ones out there and it really is just a nail polish shaker, i clamp mine down to and it seems to shake a smidge better, but ya buy the nail version and only if you have a ton of paint so some sit for awhile
Has it shaken off your desk? edit: Also can you make another "Bandai take my money"? With the announcement of the new ver.ka and bandai trademarking "Master Grade Extreme" I think theres a decent amount of things to talk about.
Lmao dont buy the nail version. They just throw nail polish bottles around 🤣 or dont get the cheapest one off of amazon. Pretty sure i had the one shown in the video and it was TERRIBLE.
My god your voice is uncannily familiar. I swear I've heard you in a separate gaming channel. Or something! I'm going crazy trying to remember where I've heard your voice before.
@xxnike629xx Especially to you, since it's a sure thing that you'll never try painting again too, thanks to your disastrous botch in your first attempt in painting, where you claimed that you swallowed some paint and suffered breathing problems as a result. 😀😁😂
A paint shaker for 1 bottle seems meh, might as well do it myself. If it was capable of shaking multiple bottles at the same time I'd consider it at least useful
With the experience my wrist has, I require no tool to shake my cans.
Meat beating skills 100%
More tool review videos incoming!
I wanna see u build! Even if it's a sped up time lapse
@@DragoonMaster117 He has a video of RX-78-2 build. It's the first one video he did.
@@Kenny_F91 I've watched liked and shared lolol.
Yo Gundam do you plan on doing a video on the new MG tier when more info comes out?
@Michael Galida Shame GW's trying to get the more radical elements to purge the fanbase for them.

Hurmmm why does this man sound like It'sAGundam? 🤔 How strange...
Not worth $30. Most people just use an electric toothbrush and rubber band and does the trick just fine :) look up DIY paint shaker
yes i love asscatchem, from the great anime called poke-hemon. Love your stuff keep it up.
Also those bottles were huge I only use smaller bottles with agitators, I bathe cheaper nail polish one and it works great a year later . I recommend that plus get beads that won’t rust . Or a couple small garden stones and cook them to sanitise them before putting in your paints of course .

Excellent and honest review. Keep 'em coming!
Try a jig saw with 3d printed paint adapters, I’ve revived some 20+ year old mr color with that setup.
I thought about the Robart Paint Shaker, but I eventually wound up going with a vortex paint mixer, specifically a Typhoon because of so many having used them in the past and liking them. Oh, and it actually mixes your paints, although I haven't tried on anything larger than two ounce bottles.
1:10 -- Like you said, that's a $10 make-up shaker with a decal on it. Might as well get the cheapo version.
The local hobby store has a valejo version iirc.
Was wondering how usefull it'd be, so thanks for the review
My teacher of mr hobby paints taught me, you should NEVER mix thinner & paint & leaving them for months, the thinner will break the paint & degrade its result
And maybe you should invest in tamiya paint stirrer, yes those thing looks expensive for what you got, but trust me, those sticks are easy to use because of its design, its not random thin alunium stick
That thing is a gimmic if you want your paint shook up real good place the bottle in a ultrasonic cleaner and boom like a million shakes per minute
Just use it for comedic relief. I still get a giggle out of remembering that.
Not sure about the shake weight idea, you'll probably end up creating some sort of seismic generator that destroys your house.
@Michael Galida Thanks. Couldn't think what to use. When in doubt, womble.
with shakers like these you might need a mixing bead; an agitator of some sort, say a Hematite bead or stainless ball bearings. Hope this helps!
This helped me a lot I bought beads that don’t rust . Always use 2 beads as one isn’t enough it will take too long. So thanks 🙏 I bought the cheaper nail polish one and use a couple agitators it works perfectly. I’d highly recommend getting the cheaper one I’ve had one for a year now and still works great .
Just use electric hand saw and a bunch of straps + don't forget to add few glass balls in paint can.
Gundam have you seen the1/100 Barbatos Lupis Rex Dragon King resin conversion kit?
As a wise man once said, "Beat that paint like it broke into your house and owes you rent!".
I've seen a korean using one of those ultra sonic cleaners for that, I just don't know if it works with every paint, I believe it was Gaia notes chrome that he mixed
Did u put metal ball inside the bottle?
added mixing balls to my paint, no shaker needed.
Do you think it would be better to shake your paint or get a stirrer?
you could try an Ikea latte frother ( it's the same as the electric paint mixers, just sometimes a different nib). I see most people use those and you can get it for < $20
This works great with square bottles like Tamiya enamels or Tamiya mini paint bottles with a few ball bearings in it.
I use a battery operated stirrer - Id been eyeing off that shaker in your vids, tks for the honest review. Look forward to some more.
Should of bought the rrobert184 version it's much better but hasn't been available for 5 years.
Thanks for your videos!! In this video, do the paint bottles that you use contain mixing balls inside? Do you use mixing balls at all? Thanks!
..do you have ball bearings in the paint? have you tried attaching your paint to a drill and a sanding disc 30 seconds tops!
i use an old jigsaw with a clamp instead of the sawblade, works perfect.
Lad style vortex shacker works better but cost a lot more. Do you use glass or hematite beads in you paint bottles?
Hey, quick question. What spray booth do you use? I want to get into painting and I need one, and yours looks good. Thanks!
I have one of these too....meh at best. You should take a look at the Typhoon paint shakers that are on eBay...
def want a vortex paint shaker.
Where do you buy that size of paint?
@itsagunpla what do you think of this girls model? 1/24 HY2M RX 78-2 Gundam Review: th-cam.com/video/0y1N-vHRshI/w-d-xo.html

Hello, where did you get the empty paint bottles for your paints ? thank you
Cleaning empty paint bottle
Buy empty paint bottle, mr hobby provide 15ml, 45ml & 75ml
Some 3rd party brands that newtype stock up, thin plastic bottle with ball bearing in it
1. Cleaning paint bottle is a chore, but you can buy similar paint & use the empty one as stirring cup, which overtime cleans it & you don't lose any paint leftovers
2. Dedicated bottle is quite expensive, when you consider you can buy paint instead, but these are very easy to clean with your finger

Hope you're doing good, man. I'm looking forward to seeing whatever you're working on.
I always thought this thing was bullshit. Who mixes paint by slightly turning the bottle one way and the other? If anything could make it work better, it would to SLOW THE HELL DOWN.
Just strap the paint to a back massager.
I never knew I'd be interested in a paint shaker review. But here we are.
i use the hell out of mine, im in a different but sim hobby space than you and i have literally hundreds of paints, so mine gets sued a lot but there is def better ones out there and it really is just a nail polish shaker, i clamp mine down to and it seems to shake a smidge better, but ya buy the nail version and only if you have a ton of paint so some sit for awhile
this works better if you add some stainless steel BBs in your paint bottles.
If you have a jigsaw and a clamp that works pretty well
I just strap my paints to my jig saw and that works for me
Has it shaken off your desk?
edit: Also can you make another "Bandai take my money"? With the announcement of the new ver.ka and bandai trademarking "Master Grade Extreme" I think theres a decent amount of things to talk about.
The intro though is top notch
wrap the paints up and let fluffy at them
Hey try the Typhoon paint shaker its way better!
Check out the Badger paint stirrer is much faster.
There's a paint shaker??
Not just any paint shaker, an ambulatory paint shaker.
The one tool I dont have
Lmao dont buy the nail version. They just throw nail polish bottles around 🤣 or dont get the cheapest one off of amazon. Pretty sure i had the one shown in the video and it was TERRIBLE.
Still waiting for that PG Strike.
It's gonna be a while, I am currently on the waist and torso.
@@ItsAGunpla can I strap my schwang into the paint shaker and give myself a good ol time?

My god your voice is uncannily familiar. I swear I've heard you in a separate gaming channel. Or something! I'm going crazy trying to remember where I've heard your voice before.
Wait no nevermind. I've actually visited your channel once before on a 3am miniature painting video binge.
it's a gundam ?
I just do straight builds. I dont have the patient or skills like some of these builders.

Does it work with babies?

Eh... Not worth it.
