What happens here

The Fan Pivot is an innovative accessory designed to solve the problem of awkward spray gun manipulation. It easily attaches between your spray gun and the spray tip. Once installed, it allows you to rapidly rotate the spray fan pattern (represented by the clear plastic piece in the video) with just one finger. This means you can instantly switch from spraying a vertical element to a horizontal one without needing to adjust your grip, arm, or wrist, significantly improving speed and precision in your DIY painting tasks.

Goal: Enable instant, one-finger rotation of the spray fan for adaptable painting.

But if you can't switch your gun quickly to be ready for the other direction you end up with some awkward position for your arm and your Hose. So what the fan pivot does is it allows you to very rapidly rotate your fan. This represents the fan. So if you're spraying a vertical element you can switch and spray a horizontal element in media. If you want a little more reach you want Extension you can put the fan pivot on your gun. Leave it there pretty much all the time. Add whatever extension you want and then
