Masking Tape Despenser

I didn't want to spend the money on a masking machine for my personal shop. So I used the handle of my harbor freight tool cart to make my own. I tack welded a hacksaw blade to rip the paper. Much faster than the old fashioned way.

I did wrap a piece of electrical tape around it for a little more grip on the masking tape.

No holes for the base. I just drilled my own. Center hole is a tad smaller than a standard 1/4-20 bolt. De-bur the tape holder for a free spin. Don't de-bur the bracket. Keeps the bolt from spinning. Feels much tighter that way.
