One of the better ones Ive tried yet. little bit of cotton or foam filter in the top & boom. The only bottle I found to be really helpful was a fat smaller bbq sauce. Little bit of water in the bottom and I can rest my brush though I wouldnt advise it. If it had a little more bottom lip then yeah but this works beyond great

Thanks for the great design. I hope you like my remix.

Coated with XTC-3D inside (thinned with acetone and poured in) and out to make it sturdier and watertight.

Cut down a 2L bottle to make it more stable

This looks great and I am going to print and try.
A really nice addition would be a filter on the back end to catch the last drops. Not a CAD master myself but anyone any ideas on what this could looks like or how it could be implemented?

@Rolleroo_935529 I tested a bunch of diameters and smaller than the 2nd (smaller) model did not improve my measurements. What diameter do you suggest?

@Gerhard_48223 I was thinking of trialling smaller ones in a parallel or in series. I was thinking of something like 20mm diameter, possibly half what you have now. Much smaller likely makes printing difficult.

Súper funcional, perfecto para mi pequeño taller de pintura. Gracias.

@SvenDelgado_1916164 Cool, did you melt the bottle top onto another container? (edited)

@Rolleroo_935529 yes, i put in to a hard plastic glass for more stability.

works like a charm! thanks for sharing! since im not using the funnel to pour out the cup, i plugged the hole with a small piece of litterbox filter. no more sputter or mist coming out.
