Buckle Up, Buckaroos

Tired of running up and down ladders to get tools or different size paint brushes? Here's how to buckle up for big-time convenience. Next time you're painting, make a caddy to holster up your brushes. Just cut the top third off of an old plastic container (from laundry detergent or orange juice), then cut two small slits in the back and thread an old belt through them. Load it up with various brushes, and strap it on. You'll have a quick draw/no hassle holster that will give you exactly the brush you need when and where you need it. Same goes for tools, nails, screws, parts -- whatever. And that's the On The House tip for today.
