So you have some paint pots that you have not used for some time? Did your parents/wife take all your powertools. as you where playing with them late at night keeping them awake and maby slipped and made a few holes in the table? Maybe you are bored of shaking things and need a new way of mixing your paint? Then print this paint shaker to shake some paint! One turn on the big wheel turn the small wheel 4 times! See how fast you can go before the plastic melts. Just make sure you have fastened the lids as the paints are in for a ride! Print all parts and assemble. Attach paint to the thin stick with a rubber band and turn the wheel. Two settings (grips) for turning the big wheel, closer in for less power but higher speed and the one further out for more power but less speed. And for all you speed freaks print the extra grip thingy™ to ensure minimal friction and blisters on your hands Your looking at a print time of only ca 26h so get printing now! Scaled to fit a ender 3 FDM largest part is X 206.1 mm Y 184.2 mm Z 33.4 mm You will also need a rubber band or two that is not included. Maby some glue to but i have managed without it so far. Its all test printed and i have shaken multiple bottles of paint with it *paint bottles for this text is the 12ml drop bottles or citadel bottles not large house paint buckets etc. you could maby scale this up and use it to shake your 5l wall colors but i have not tested it. **shaking your paint by hand is probably more effective but less fun and does not use a 3d printed paint shaker.(oh dont shake your paint as it mixes oxygen in the paint and makes them dry out faster or something. stir it)
