Upgraded Modular Paint Rack/Shelf

Here is an upgraded version of my Previous Modular (wall or any flat surface mounted) Paint rack for Vallejo and Army Painter standard paint bottles. https://makerworld.com/en/models/29929 This is a very first part of series I'm making. Full version will cover 3 Types of the Rack. Flat Wall mounted, Table Top and a version of Honeycomb Storage Wall (HSW) mounted one. And I'm Going to make it for Citadel jars as well, just need to get some as I don't have any at a moment. So stay tuned if You are interested in! If some parts looks a little bit weird for you, they are made as they are for a reason to make everything print with no supports. So yes No Supports Needed for any part.

Short description of parts:

- Mounting Platform Base. Can be stacked with infinite number of other mounting platforms using connection pins. So you can use one or make all of the wall as a paint rack. Small thing for printing it: I have added a small Mouse ears on each corner to prevent wrapping. So all you have to do is to snap them off before assembling your wall. - Vallejo/Army Painter Paint Holders for 5 and 7 bottles. - Tamiya 10ml jar Paint holders for 3 and 5 jars. - Paint Holder Bracket. Used to attach Vallejo/AP Holder to the Platform. You can use 2 or even up to 7 Brackets for each holder. - Platform connection brackets with 4 and 2 pins. And triangle pins for vertical connectivity. - End brackets with 2 pins and screw hole for wall fitting. - Hex Inserts with screw hole. Made for wall fitting. - Additional brackets to attach Vallejo/AP Paint Holder straight to the wall or any other flat surface like plywood, MDF e.t.c. if You don't want to use Platform Panel provided. - Tamiya Paint Jar holders with screw sockets for straight wall fitting. - Hole guides for those who are putting Paint Holders straight to wall. I made to guides. Single line and 2 line if you want to go on more than 1 row - As a bonus - Paint Brush holder for a Platform Base. 23.07.2025 Update

- Added Reoriented Bracket for Vallejo / Army Painter Holders. Bracket is split in half to avoid using any supports. I have made Dowel Connectors/Guides as well to simplify glueing halves together.  So, a little glueing is needed but it should eliminate issue with breaking of a snap Lip as I have got a complaint of such problem. If this variant proves its effectiveness, I will add same for other brackets as well

- As this project has transformed from simple AP/Vallejo and Tamiya Wall Paint Rack to some kind of a monster with lots of other paint and style thing I have made a Collection where all of the Remixes are in one place. Hope it  will give a clearer view and easier to find what exactly you need. It can be found here 04.08.2024 Update

- I have made a Remix with a Multiboard Adapter Bracket , So now all Paint Holders can be used on Multiboard Now. Remix can be found here . 11.05.2024 Update

- Added Straight Holder for five Low profile 12ml Citadel Bottles - Added Angled Holder for five Taller 18/24ml Citadel Bottles (can be used for 12ml as well) - Raw STL files for both folders can be found under Bottle-Holders folder and profile for Citadel Holders is made as well. - As I'm still searching for better presentation concept of my models so they could be easier to understand, I have changed cover Image. - Changes made in description and added few tags related to newly added Citadel Holders 20.04.2024 Update

Added additional Holder for Revell / Humbrol 14ml Cans

Assembly shouldn't be difficult. Here are some instructions:

- To connect 2 or more Platform Panels together use a 4 Pin or 2 Pin Connectors . Just put Panels together and push Connectors in to the sockets. On the ends of your Panel construction use a 2 Pin Connectors or ones with screw hole if you want to make even sturdier bond to the wall. - To attach Your Platform Base assembly to the wall or wooden sheet use a Hex Screw sockets. Use as many as You want in any of Honeycomb holes. Just push in, drill a pilot hole in right place on the wall and use a m3.5 or m4 screw to screw it on. - If You are putting together more than one row of Platform Bases then optionally you can use a Triangle Vertical Connection Pins between them in relevant pinholes for stronger overall construction. - Fitting a Bracket to Vallejo/PA Bottle Holder . Push a Bracket_VA from bottom back into a decided Holder bottom hole until it snaps in. You may need to use a little force for this operation. You can use a bracket for each holder, but I would suggest to use 2 or 3 for each holder line. You can attach Brackets to the Platform Base prior to Holder line if you feel that is easier to You. - Fitting a Brackets to the Platform Base. No much science here. Push a Bracket's base into desired socket from top downwards until it snaps in. One note here. Even as it is designed that You can take it off if needed, it will be a bit hard to do (not without a reason). So I would suggest to plan placing of holder prior to attaching them to the Platform Base. In case if You want to remove them, detach Holder Line. - Fitting a Tamiya Jar Holder Line to the Platform Base. All the same as for Bracket_VA fitting with only difference that here is no separate Brackets.

- Fitting a Brackets and Lines to the bare wall. If You don't want to use a Platform Base You can use a Bracket_4_Wall brackets and Tamiya_x_Bottles_Wall_pinns holder lines on bare wall. Use a Wall Hole Guides for easy hole placement. In this case it is highly recommended to screw Bracket_4_Wall brackets to the wall first and only then attach a Vallejo_AP_Bottles Holder to the bracket as other way it will be difficult to screw them to the wall.
