Paint Palette Turntable made using empty filament spool and milk bottle lids

thingiverse

A free-spinning turntable which holds milk bottle lids as removable and interchangeable paint wells. The milk bottle lids seem to be standard across brands here in the UK. I tried Iceland, Co-op, Cravendale and the local corner shop and all lids are 40mm in diameter. The filament spool is Amazon's Basicfil brand. I used the 500g size. The part of the turntable which fits into the centre hole of the spool is 52mm outer diameter. I made the seven spoke version for myself but have also uploaded 8, 9 and 10 spoke versions. Please note I haven't printed and tested these versions but have no reason to suspect that they would not work. I have also made some drawers that will fit in the gap of the filament spool to hold small knick-knacks. They push in fairly tight to make sure they don't slip out. The version here is for the 500g spools with a height of 37mm. If you want to use the 1kg spool, you will need to resize the Z axis only in your slicer to the correct height. I have also made a handheld paint palette which uses milk bottle lids which you can find here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4771826 I have made a spiral version too: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4786701
