HOW TO: Neat Painting Jig

Before i start i appologize if something like this has been posted before.

I, myself like to hold my car bodies when i paint them. So i can have full 360 degree rotation.

Now im sure a few of you have some left over x-mas wrapping paper tubes correct? What could be better than converting this trash item into a super long hand held painting jig? Well comrades, there are 2 steps involved in which i will explain below.

TOOLS AND SUPPLIES NEEDED:
1. Wrapping paper tube or equivalent.

2. Tape -i like the blue painters tape, because it doesnt leave sticky stuff. But mostly because its blue.

STEP ONE:
Tape off one side of the tube.

STEP TWO:
Tape the underside of the body to be painted onto the tape applied in step 1.

Ok so its not really a how to, more of a tip with steps.
Hey, it works trust me!
