Heat bend the 7cm x 2.5cm acylic piece so it takes the shape as shown in the first image. The bend should be slightly smaller than the thichness of handle. Glue it to the bigger acrylic piece.

As shown in the second image, mark where the 90 degree turn comes and file a notch in the acrylic piece we just heat bent. This will ensure the handle doesn't move from side to side.

Now place the handle between the 2 pieces of acrylic which is kind of the primitive vice we've made. Make sure the filed sides of the handle in the previous step makes the handle sit flat against the 2 acrylic pieces it is sandwiched between. Also the 90 degree bend should fit in the notch you've filed.

Now I wanted to drill a hole at the end of the acrylic and press the handle between the 2 pieces but tightening a nut and bolt but I had no drill available so used sellotape which worked out just fine to press them together tightly.

As shown in 2nd and 3rd image, cut off the corner of the acrylic piece so it does not hit the surface when using the roller.

If you found a way to cut your design time in half, wouldn’t you use it? Photoshop actions allow designers to save time and stay efficient by “recording” common tasks so that they can be automatically performed on different projects. But that’s not the best feature of actions for Photoshop; they’re also easy to share and download.

This community aspect has turned Photoshop actions into the ultimate designer “cheat code.” Downloading another designer’s actions lets you quickly apply new effects and techniques to your designs while also learning how those results were achieved.

We’ve searched high and low for the best free Photoshop actions and have returned with a plentiful bounty. This colossal collection was cultivated with print designers in mind, but there’s something here for everybody who uses Photoshop—from photo retouching and lighting tools to vector art and vintage effects.

From the Community

We asked graphic designers on Twitter to share their favorite Photoshop actions with us. Here’s what they had to say.

@CompanyFolders The resizing one is actually included with PSp, but you would need to set up your own dimensions. http://t.co/QaVgU9RuaH

@CompanyFolders i rarely use actions but i find the bjango set is great for app designers http://t.co/nJpMT9AFtj

@CompanyFolders I use Totally Rad's Get Faded set for next to any picture I create. Even if the layer is just at 10% it adds a perfect touch

Conclusion

Not every action is going to work for every image. Remember to use them as guidelines—keep what works, but make necessary adjustments when the design calls for it. Sometimes you might find that a popular action is just incompatible with your design—but there are enough free Photoshop actions out there that you’re bound to find one that will work for your needs.

Now we want to hear from you. Do you have a favorite time-saving Photoshop action? Please share them in the comments below.
