Why make the hole at the bottom?
Wouldn't a hole at the top release the gas, without the paint?




If it's upside down, the bottom _is_ the top. And the bottom is a much
better surface to try to pierce.


And it sounds like Jordan was trying to get the paint to **** out of the
bottom of the can and squirt into the bucket.

I'm skeptical, its sound from a physics basis, but likely to be VERY
messy. Especially trying to hammer a nail *upwards* at a location below
the workbench, with a bucket in the way no less.

And how 'ya gonna grip a spray can in a vise very well, unless you make
up some curved mating jaws out of 2 by 4s or something like that.

Fess up Jordan, have you *actually* done it that way yourself?
