Holder for spray painting

thingiverse

I designed this tool to make spraying paint on prints much simpler. The holder serves as a hook for drying items, a pincer to pick up newly sprayed items (allowing them to dry) and a safe way to transport freshly spray-painted items. This has proven particularly useful when varnishing objects, as the transparency of the varnish enables me to use the hook in areas that would be unsuitable for opaque paint. I combined the holder with a standard plastic tube from a miniature paintbrush, which I sometimes use as a lock (as shown in the photo). The holder flexes well and can be attached in multiple ways due to its shape and three holes in its frame. In the photo, the holder is holding the frame of an unpainted fidget spinner.
