Vertical paint rack for flat surfaces

prusaprinters

<p>A paint rack that can be put on flat surfaces.</p><p>This design was originally intended for 0.8mm nozzles, but I've included also the models for 0.4mm nozzles.</p><h5><strong>Generating your own paint rack</strong></h5><p>If you want to generate your own paint rack, you need <a href="https://openscad.org/">OpenSCAD</a>.</p><p>The scad contains the following adjustable variables:</p><pre><code class="language-plaintext">// Possible values: // - SLOT_0_4_STL // - SLOT_0_8_STL // SLOT_STL=SLOT_0_8_STL; // Specifies the size of the paint rack RACK_SIZE_X=5; // Columns RACK_SIZE_Z=4; // Rows // Adjust the base size where the rack "sticks" on FLOOR_SIZE=1.2; // The size of the additional padding applied to the base. // It's coloured for debugging purposes. PADDING_FLOOR_TOP=15; // red PADDING_FLOOR_LEFT=3; // green PADDING_FLOOR_RIGHT=3; // blue PADDING_FLOOR_BOTTOM=5; // pink</code></pre><h5><strong>Disclaimer</strong></h5><p>The print does not come clean enough, even for 0.8mm, and some overhangings do appear, eventhough PrusaSlicer doesn't indicate so.</p><p>The 0.4mm has more over-hangings than 0.8mm with layer sizes below 0.15mm, but I don't think nobody wants to spend more than 17 hours…</p><p>Also, the FreeCAD files are still somewhat messy, but less messy than <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/202438-vertical-paint-rack">previous iteration</a>.</p><h5>Support</h5><p>Tested with the following paint bottles:</p><ul><li>Vallejo Game Color</li><li>Vallejo Model Color</li><li>Army Painter Warpaints</li><li>Army Painter Speedpaints</li><li>Scalecolor Scale75</li><li>Scalecolor Metal n' Alchemy</li><li>Scalecolor Instant</li></ul>
