Does anyone know of an Australian retailer/distributor for this product?

I know I can get them from Rockler, Woodcraft etc, but I tend to try to support the Aussie guy with the product before buying from OS (call it my contribution to the domestic economy stimulation)

Jeremy,

I dunno, but I can tell you they work a treat. :)

I did a search of the New Inventors site using "paint" and found nothing.:grumble:

Thanks for the thought:2tsup:

Would it be so hard to make your own out of some hardwood offcuts?

Jeremy,
a few off cuts with screws (or nails) driven in to a common height will work just as well. Take less time to make than ordering some and waiting for them to arrive or going somewhere to buy them.

I could halfway swear I'd posted a thread about it, but can't find it now. Maybe it was on a different forum.

I've used spiky gumballs from a sweetgum tree, in the same manner as painter's pyramids, for sealing both ends of a log or plank in a single session. Depending on the size of the piece, they can even work on sloping ground.

Cheers,
Joe

You got that right, DJ. And I hadn't recorded it in my own index file either.:-

Cheers,
