Scale Model Building and Painting Stand
I wanted a building and painting stand for my scale model planes. Searching Thingiverse, I discovered the stand by esorreta that was almost like I what I was looking for.
I applied some modifications to better fit my needs:
- Longer horizontal arms: I mostly build 1/48 scale planes so I wanted the arms to be a bit longer.
- Option to use longer vertical sliders: to be able to use longer sliders if necessary, depending on the model.
- Simpler design of the fixed "saddles": for easier printing.
- Thumbwheels with nuts: for locking the sliders in place (inspired by thumbwheels usually used for 3D printer heated bed leveling).
- Interlocking arms/cross center: to not require glue.
- Extra holes for screws: for easy integration with IKEA SNUDDA round rotating board.
