3D model description

I was tired of the ring brush holders that you can't separate your tools or your little detail brush disappears into the forest of other brushes. I paint at my desk where my computer is so I like to have enough room to hold some pens markers ext as well. The little shorty cups are great for the little tools and lots of sections allow you to sort out brushes by usage. The funny thing is the first one I made became our silverware holder keeps the silverware sorted and out of the dirt collecting drawer.

I like the tube paints this is sized for the 4 oz tubes the 2.5 โ€œchubbyโ€ tubes should work fine as well I have included a โ€œcupโ€ to print to size your tubes. This can be resized to fit any paints including all bottles. Just get out your calipers the inside dimension is 41mm measure your bottles and figure the resizing percent then print a test cup of the resize. I don't recommend resizing the Z (vertical size) just X-Y you want a step to be able to see what you have in back rows. You can see in one picture the base 33 cup holder can be expanded by gluing the cups to the side rows, I added 6 to make 39 cups, don't know how far it can be expanded but I wouldn't go beyond 9 on each side. If you shrink it remember these walls will get thinner so then I don't think it would be good to expand it.

3D printing settings

Both of these are designed for quick printing I used a Bambu PS1 for the brush holder and the A1 (not the mini) for the paint holder. I used generic Pet-G and basic default settings 3 wall and 10% infill, 5 layer bottom 3 layer top. and speed boosted to ludicrous mode. The brush holder is only walls of .8mm including bottom so no infill, or inner walls will be used, the paint holder cup walls are also .8mm but hollow posts and the under cups taper, I added 5 layer bottom to reinforce the lower frame.
