Multiboard XL 50.5 dia, 200ml Paint Bottle Holder- suitable for Vallejo etc.

NOTE!

I have now designed several of these holders so this text is copied and pasted to each of them so the links work.

The various holders are designed to accommodate bottles in a range of sizes and were originally designed specifically for:

Citadel

Vallejo paint bottles

Army Paint

Amazon style generic acrylic paints like X-Arty

Larger Amazon generic bottles

Thinner bottles

Water squeeze bottles

ETC!

General:

This is a paint bottle holder set designed for the Multiboard system here:

https://www.multiboard.io/

There are several types out there but none seemed to quite fit what I needed.

The design uses the small thread bolt available here:

https://thangs.com/designer/Multiboard/3d-model/Small%20Thread%20-%20Multipoint-1123334

“Small Thread – Multipoint”

This set is suitable for the make or size mentioned but will of course accommodate smaller diameters to a point.

DO NOT SCALE – The sockets at the back must be 25mm apart!

You can evenly stack the system vertically

Very easy to install and can be removed and moved at a later date without damage.

Provides an excellent visual layout to be able to easily view paint colours/labels etc. on all displayed bottles. However as a side affect this unfortunately does mean you will need more space than some other systems.

Installation Pointers:

You will need at least two small thread multipoint bolts/screws, link above. On my install I normally use two but think about the weight of a full holder, with full bottles and one of the larger holders it may be worth installing more!

I installed all my bolts finger tight, if the holders don’t slide on easily just loosen the bolts slightly. Check the holder for level when you think it is properly seated.

The bolts locate in the small diamonds which are built into the Multiboard main pieces.

The Holders are labelled “A-Z” (Usually the last holder will be F, G or H). A is the left most holder. If you are wanting to place them together in a line as shown you should in pics start with “A”, then “B” and so on. Note that “A” will not connect to “D”. If you think you might want to expand left, start with B or C (etc.).

If anyone needs even more horizontal holders let me know and I will try to help time allowing.

There is a small overlap so if you want them tight together fit A first, then B (etc.).

To stack vertically - see the pics.

Printing:

Usually there will be a 3mf file usually designed for an H2D and one or more STL files. If there is only one you will need to load it into your slicer and split the file to parts or objects and then arrange and print the ones you want.

NOTE! In this case there are TWO versions of this holder.

•

Double angled holder A-F

•

Double vertical holder A-F for a flatter look (but takes more space!)

Multiboard recommend 3 wall loops.

No supports are normally needed

PLA or PETG will be fine, PETG is arguably a little better because it will flex if the bottles are tight.
