Summary

This is a second version of a previous miniature paint handle, found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4235396

This iteration has a more comfortable and natural feeling in the hand. The sliding clamp pieces now extend beyond the opposite side so as you can squeeze them to open the clamp. Additionally I’ve added tabs to the top of the sliding pieces to better hold the mini in place.

This prints in 3 parts. You will need to print the slide file twice. I recommend printing each part vertically, for the slide file that would be oriented so that the round cut out is pointing up. After printing you just need a rubber band and a mini to paint.
I found that the clamp pieces have a tight fit at first but after being pushed in and slid back and forth a few times they loosen up and move smoothly.

I designed this in Shapr3D

If you print one I’d love to see a picture
