Painting station for hand brushing/airbrushing. Simple and fast to print, no supports needed on any part.
 

  • All items are printable without any support
  • There are 3 paintbrush resting slots
  • There are 6 customizable slots where you can fit any of the provided addons or even easily design your own one. ( design of the slot dimensions provided in a photo )
  • Small cleaning recipient under the brushes tips, with dents for easier cleaning
  • Large recipient for paints
  • Small recipient for paints
  • Airbrush stand with 12 angle positioning options. There are 2 versions of this stand with a small difference: one has a special tighter fit (on the base) and another one with more play like the rest of the addons. For me (on Bambu), the normal one, has a bit too much play with the airbrush weight.
  • Tall recipient for liquids / tools / brushes etc.
  • You can print the main base and then only the parts you really need, as many you need

 

Printed with 0.2 layer height, 3 wall loops, 4 bottom layers, 4 top layers, 20% infill (adaptive cubic). ( 1h:30min total time for the base on Bambu )
I don't see any printing issues or resistance problems if you choose to go other way or print  faster. The base is pretty thin (3mm), so if you want a sturdier setup, this is the piece you should make stronger.

Update 02.11.2023:

  • Improved the base structure with 2 small storage locations (for small things), one extra slot to use (under the horizontal brushes). Also updated the pictures with the latest base version.
  • tools / water / brushes recipient: increased height with 5mm, added a 15mm separator on the bottom (for better stability of brushes and separation), increased a little the dimensions to have less play in the base
