I have finalized my design for a paint rack, and have been actively cutting the parts. The overall design is large, but is mainly so that I can hold all the various paints I have collected. Cut from 3mm plywood, the assembly is fairly fast and easy, and the structure is surprisingly solid once together. Initially I was using wood glue, but with the suggestion of the wife, switched to hot glue instead – making it much easier to assemble.
The current design holds 63 dropper style bottles, or 45 Citadel pots, and can be easily adjusted to fit other options. The top layer also includes holes for brushes or similar. The sides are designed to slot directly into a second rack, but I have found it is easier to just use two sides instead.
Currently, I have the design files available for any Patreon supporters, or available for direct purchase thru Patreon for a one-time fee. I am also looking to make the parts available thru Etsy or something similar, once I get time to sort out that process, for those unable to laser cut the parts.
All parts were designed and modeled in Lightburn, and cut out on my X-Tool D1 Pro 10w diode laser. The logo on the back support is customizable, if you prefer a different logo or just a blank piece (its also reversible).
