Paint Strainer Holder with Hinged Clip

thingiverse

This innovative paint strainer holder is engineered to be securely fastened onto the edge of a paint can, enabling the paint to be carefully filtered into a container. Any individual who has had to deal with old paint will attest that opening the lid unleashes a cascade of dried paint and other debris into the paint below. Utilizing a strainer is the ideal solution for eliminating the unwanted junk that you don't want transferred to your walls or whatever surface you're painting. The holder is robust enough to handle a full strainer of paint, but a word of warning is necessary. Because the holder clips onto the top of the paint can, it makes the can top-heavy, so if the paint can is empty or nearly empty, the can may tip over due to the weight in the strainer.
