Jorrit - Hobby Paint Crate - Portable Painting System - Paint Minis Anywhere!

HobbyPaintCrate: Paint Minis Anywhere! is a lightweight, 3D printable "On-the-go" hobby system in the form of a compact crate that can be used at home or outside even without a table! It is great to have, even if you have a dedicated workstation at home or a different travel system, you will get much more freedom and opportunities to paint with the HobbyPaintCrate.

Standard colours are blue/orange & white. Exact colour may vary depending on filament availability. If you want a customer colour, include a message at checkout with your preference.

Features:

• The water container with a screw-on lid is waterproof and can be used to clean your brushes. The crate has a designated slot for it. Alternatively, you can use a rubber band to secure your own water container, holding it in place. Maximum size for custom containers: 59mm x 59mm.
• Miniature fastening: rubber bands or magnets! A magnet (10mm x 3mm or smaller) can be secured to the bottom of the work plate using a hollow screw - no tools or glue are needed. Just use the wet palette lid or a coin to twist the screw in place with the magnet inside. Alternatively, use rubber bands for miniatures without magnetised bases. Miniatures with bases up to 67mm x 67mm fit in the dedicated area on the work plate. Larger bases may extend beyond this area but can still be accommodated to some extent.
• Brush container: Keep your brushes and tools within reach. Brushes with paint can be placed in slightly tilted holes next to the water container, preventing paint from dripping and protecting your surroundings.
• The cleaning paper "treadmill" helps remove excess paint from brushes. It features two chambers: when one is used up, rotate it to use the second chamber. Pre-cut the paper towel to the desired width, roll it around the brush, and slide it into the chamber. Once the visible towel is used, slide it to the right side to dispose of it in a hidden space under the texture palette! Each chamber holds about ~100cm of paper towel, depending on thickness. You can prepare it in advance, and an additional unit can be printed and stored in the crate.
• The paint holder prevents spills by securing paints in four slots. Paints fit snugly and won't fall out, even if the workplate is tilted up to around 75° or more. The compartment is removable for easy cleaning. Tested and adjusted to fit the most amount of the most common paints. For paints that don't fit, use them directly on the workplate with the compartment removed. The maximum paint radius that fits in one of the 4 slots is 35.8mm.
• Drybrush texture palette: Remove excess paint by brushing the tip over the 3D texture until the desired amount remains. The texture palettes can be swapped out for different designs.
• Paint trays & wet palette: Use as either paint trays or a wet palette. For a wet palette, wet some paper towel, wrap it in baking paper, and place it inside. The lid prevents spills during transport and can be stored underneath when not in use. Removable parts make cleaning easy.
