Paint Trays (Ikea Alex Drawers)

thingiverse

UPDATE: added 5x4, 5x3, 5x2 and 5x1 trays. I've never printed these. The 5x1 tray may not be stable as a single row. Instead of "buying me a coffee", please show your makes! I'd love to see any and get feedback. Please post any comments from your experience. Thanks! Designed and printed for my wife's large collection of paints. Only fair, she paints my prints :) Sized to fit the Alex Drawers from Ikea, each drawer will hold: •4 5x7 trays •2 5x5 trays for 190 total paints per drawer Put the two 5x5 trays in the front so they can easily be removed so the other trays can slide forward to access the rearmost paints (put your rarely used ones there!) Pull out the tray of colours you want to work with and place them on the table top. Free standing and holds the paints upside down. The 2x7 tray was a later addition for a friend that just wanted it for desktop use. Earliest versions had feet at every bottle location, but that was a lot of wasted material, so I removed all but the corner feet. The rest of the tray is rigid enough to prevent any sag (Canadian temperatures with PLA+)
