Tabletop Gaming Miniature Figure Painting Handle for Dungeons and Dragons, Warhammer 40k, etc

thingiverse

This is a thing I made to hold a miniature for D&D. This is my first foray into miniature painting, and I wanted to print the helpful handle idea I had in my head. A skateboard bearing (608 size) press-fits into the pieces. They're very snug coming off my printer, but thermal expansion may cause your results to need slight tweaking. The top part is printed separately and can be easily rotated with your thumb while still remaining rigid enough not to just spin on its own. I just used a dab of hot glue for resin prints or "sticky-tack" for thermoplastic prints to attach the model. Since I made this simple design kind of complicated, I also threw together a version of the handle with the top attached as one piece. Then I realized it looked way too phallic and threw some chamfers on there to try to combat that. ;)
