Painting handle for miniatures

3D printing1 partBeginner-friendlyNo supports

A simple painting handle, 32 mm across and 60 mm tall, that you hold instead of the miniature itself while painting. Fix the figure on top with a dab of poster putty or a drop of PVA glue, and your fingers stay off fresh paint while you can turn the model in any direction. The round shape sits comfortably in the hand; for 40 mm bases, set a larger diameter in the generator.

Tip: Print standing upright as shown, no supports needed. For washers under 1 mm use a layer height of 0.1–0.2 mm. The STL holds all pieces; in the 3MF each piece is its own object.

Estimated by our slicer-like calculation for a 0.4 mm nozzle. Your slicer may show slightly different values.
