To contain the paint that will be used I have always used the containers of luck, disposable. However this fact I always encountered a disadvantage:
when inside the containers the paint was beginning to be scarce, and when I stand the brush in absent-mindedly container ... splasch ... the container fell to the brush's decentralised weight supported.

After cutting the top of the bottle, I divided into six equal parts the first half of the remaining bottle as to create a radially.
Then, through an old room air of bike I built small elastic and with these I blocked the radiating downward as in Figure.

Finally, to avoid injury with sharp edges, I've rounded up every edge of radially.

I also use these containers now and they have proved very stable and accidental shock-proof, and, in my case I assure you it is often the.I think someone else has already had this idea (is nothing transcendental), but I wanted to post it anyway if it can be useful to someone as it is incredibly easy to implement and to cost 0. I thank everyone for the attention, to the next by "do it yourself" torx.
