Default Tape application machine

Does anyone have a recommendation for a tape application machine. Or even better directions of a link to a site with directions on making your own?

There is a holder being sold on Ebay. I think the guy also sells a double holder that you can put 2 sizes of application tape on it.

Mine is very simple. I use a 4'x8' table to do my weeding and masking. So I simply went to my local hardware store and purchased 2 long eye bolts (can't remember the size, around 10" or so) and drilled holes into the table ran the eye bolts through and put a nut on the bottom and tightened. Took a dowel rod and slide it through the eye bolt then transfer tape then last eye bolt and voila one perfect tape dispenser for around $5.00 +/-

Here's a pic of my simple holder. Nothing fancy but for around $5.00 it works.

Default Re: Tape application machine

whoh, I followed the eastwood link... are you suggesting the pre-mask tape is an alternative to transfer tape?
