Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for rotatably retaining a roller for rolling along a work-surface. The apparatus include an axle adapted to engage the roller for rotation about a rotational axis, a first handle connected to the axle and radiating outward from the rotational axis, and a second handle connected to the axle and radiating outward from the rotational axis at an angle to the first handle. Optionally, the roller has outwardly radiating protrusions, for example to perforate drywall when the roller is rolled along a drywall surface.
