Paint Bottle Rotating Rack

thingiverse

So I made this rotating acrylic bottle holder since I needed one but I mainly didn't want to use the normal square or rectangular holders and I wanted something a bit more modular in case I got any more paint bottles. Shoutout to filou3D for his bearing design which I used in order to give it the bottle holder its ability to rotate: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5978208 NOTE: In order to properly print the filou3D's bearing, you have to enable "Print Thin Walls" in Cura (not sure if Prusa Slicer has an option like this). This design was made using the dimensions of the paint bottles I use although I did adjust it for Citadel paint bottles. I might do a Vallejo one soon but for now this is the design I have. If you have any comments or recommendations I'm open to them. The Main Acrylic Holder was printed as hollow as possible (using Lightning infill in Cura, not sure about Prusa Slicer) and make sure to print the Rods with a decent pattern to give it good support (I did 15% infill with Zig Zag pattern). Should be pretty straightforward to assemble but the steps are as follows: 1. Insert filou3D's 608 bearing into the middle section of the Main Bottle Holder. 2. Insert Main Threaded Rod into the Main Bottle Holder. 3. Screw the Main Threaded Rod into the Base. 4. If you plan to use the extensions, screw the Extension Rod into the Main Threaded Rod. 5. Insert the Additional Bottle Holder into the rod and adjust. 6. Repeat if you plan to use more. CAREFUL! The taller the holder gets, the less stable, I'm working on fixing this. Also, might require some sanding, depending on the filament used.
