      Strange that Bucasso picked that size. I've just checked and found the old Revell and Humbrol enamels are 35mm dia so they won't fit either!

      Wonder what paints they were designed for?

      PS Nice fix. Question now is, are you going to buy another one or will you go for something you know works?

          Just to add a quick note to this thread, as stated previously I have now fixed the issue with this paint stand by sanding out each hole to the appropriate size. I also mentioned previously that I would be emailing the company (Bucasso), which I did at the time.

          Its been well over two weeks and I have received no response whatsoever.

          I'm not too bothered as I have fixed the issue and its actually a nice stand and very useful, but,..... a warning to any potential buyer that they don't seem to have very good customer service/feedback?

            It has come to my notice that on observing your work area you are way too organised and tidy. It just won't do - it simply won't!!!????

            But on the other hand - glad you sorted it. 'It is the way of the modeller'.?

              Yeah, I am a bit OCD about keeping my working areas clean and tidy, eg: the garage, the study / model making area, garden shed, etc.
              I think it comes from two things, first we were brought up to be clean and tidy, we were not allowed to be dirty or messy or untidy as kids, we always had to clean up after ourselves, so that has always stuck with me.

              Between me and my Wife, I am deffo the tidiest one.

              Secondly many years ago I used to be a plumber, and when you are working in other peoples houses, you have to keep things tidy, clean up after yourself, even if you are working there for several days you need to clean up at the end of every day, so the occupier can still use the property, etc.

              So yes, I'm a very tidy person, Lol.... ?

              give him time.....he will soon learn the dark ways of the force ?

              I tend to get untidy whilst building....but i know where everything is.......then when ive finished something have a mega tidy up before starting the next project

              We'll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no ones been

                Oh I'm tidy unless working on a project. But I always tidy up after myself, SWMBO wouldn't have it any other way!!!! (And I - no choice).
