got my Tamiya/gunze paint holder today from John, (fank yoo) and put it together.
There are no instructions, but then we are supposed to be modellers, and although it looks simple, there's a few ways round the pieces can go, so dry run this one before glueing.
The two side pieces and the top/bottom are simple enough to work out, but putting the actual holder pieces in needs you to look carefully. There's notches on the back as well, and 7/8 of the pieces fit anywhere. Just make sure the notches line up with the centre holder after fitting,
I used a hot glue gun, as this held the parts together fairly well and fast.
Once built, I used a piece of 1/8" hardboard, cut to the size of the whole thing, and made a back for it. Why? Because it can be VERY flimsy without it, and it doesn't come in the kit.
Once together it works really well, and certainly cleans up untidy pots everywhere.
