3D model description

This is a small parts holder useful to paint subassemblys in miniature painting.
It uses a small filament section at the top to provide a swapable tip.
Just simply glue on whatever you want to paint on top and go!
Also very useful for priming (see also my priming handle!).

The filament insert-hole is tight on purpose, for me I had to twist it a bit to get it in,
you dont need to fit it in very far, its held quite securely i find with even the tinyest bit of filament inserted. Let me know if I have to adjust the fit!
I recommend cutting the filament tip with a hobby knife to get an even surface and glueing to a surface which will be covered by the mini later on.

When you're done painting just snip it off again and glue your part to the model.

This does work with PLA filament as an insert, it might need to dry a bit longer when attaching it (I recommend Tamiya extra thin).
