Summary

If you need to paint or finish a part, paint cones are a must. They hold your part above the surface. They allow you to hold a wet part without marking it. They can hold spherical parts in place and stabilize compicated shaped ones.

These are serious paint cones. Unlike cheap printable or commercial ones, those have all you want :

  • tetrahedron scalable shape for best stability
  • securable in place with screws
  • star shape (not pyramidal) to prevent overspray bouncing
  • heavy duty shape to hold both heavy and light parts even on 3 cones only

These paint cones are part of the Serious Bench Biscuit Set :

"A little upgrade after 10 months using them in loads of projects. The initial set printed as prototype is still in use. I printed 12 of them out of PLA, planning to upgrade some or replace damaged ones. I still have 6 brand new ones I never used, and the 6 in use are still working as new. So don't print spare parts if you don't need it. They're much stronger than expected and even working in heavy furniture projects and various types of solvent paint and varnishes, they don't damage at all. I believe it's a lifetime tool."
