Abstract
A rollable support for a paint supply including a roller tray, or a 5-gallon pail, has a support wall that will receive the paint supply desired. The support wall is mounted on suitable rollers at least one end that engages a surface to permit moving the paint supply support across the surface. A pair of non-rolling feet are connected to the paint supply support through pivoting link so that the feet can be moved from a position wherein they engage the surface and lift at least one end of the paint supply support so the rollers at that end of the paint supply support are lifted off the surface, the feet are movable a position wherein the feet clear the floor and the rollers support the paint supply support. As shown, rails forming parallel links comprise the feet and both ends of the paint supply support are raised and lowered. The rails provide a stable mount for the paint container support and any supported paint container when they are lowered.
