Recently, we showed you GalaxG‘s ErgoMaster Pro paint brush handle. You can check it out here.
Gadgets like these might, at first glance, seem like a novelty, but the reality is proper ergonomics are important. It’s pretty hard to argue otherwise. The value of proper ergonomics is especially true when you’re doing work professionally. So, even if they seem a little odd, items such as the ErgoMaster Pro shouldn’t be written off.
It turns out that the anti-fatigue handle isn’t the only device GalaxG has to offer for easier painting. GalaxG has numerous products that make painting easier for the pro, but the Counter-Gravity System directly addresses ergonomics. The system is a series of weights that easily attach to paint brushes to create a balanced tool.
16 gram, 24 gram, and 32 gram sets are offered to balance different sized brushes. Two combo sets are also offered. The “DIY” combo allows you to mix and match weights for a range from 20 grams to 24 grams. The “Pro” combo allows for setups ranging from 16 grams to 32 grams.
The weights are fairly inexpensive. The 16 gram, 24 gram, and 32 gram sets are available for less than $4. The DYI combo is available for about $5 to $5.50. The Pro set is sold for about $10 to $11.
