Summary

PLEASE LET ME NOW IF YOU NEED MORE CUSTOM HEAD SIZES THAT MATCH YOUR MINIATURE BASES !

An easy to print and modular painting handle for miniatures.
There are multiple heads that can be replaced to fit the miniatures you own.
Circle base naming : head_circle_25_3.stl means a diameter of 25mm and a edge thickness of 3mm.

Handle diameter : 40mm
Handle height : 90mm
Handle height (with head) : 98mm
Let me know if you need a smaller version.

Each head is 2mm less in diameter, so the handle acts like pliers. There is no need for springs or rubber bands but you can use a rubber band if you want a good grip.
I recommend the normal studs, but if it doesn't hold well, there are bigger studs available.

Feel free to share ideas and feedback to improve this thing :)
You can find the head specifications (measures in millimeters) as an image in the files if you want to design other heads.

Printing guide :

  • Print 1 handle (fill : 10%)
  • Print 2 times the same head (fill : 10%)
  • Print 4 times the same studs (try normal studs first) (fill : 50% minimum)
