Hi I did a build post a couple back on the same thing but Photobucket put pay to that post

These are some of the ones I made at the time, I made about 15-20 of them and gave them away free at Telford show last year you can still see them on the Ism Friday's night live at the bench show

Cool, that's very good of you to do that too.
It's a real bugger about the whole PB thing, I just gave up on mine, downloaded a small handful of completed kit pics and binned everything else and deleted the account, thankfully I'd changed to flickr a good while before for my main photography hobby so there wasn't much in the way of really important images there.
These stands really do work well though, I'm delighted with mine and I find it easier than the styrofoam as there's no disturbing other parts as you jab in a fresh one.

I am dragging this up again as it is a brilliant idea to use old kit boxes as the base and sides for the paint stands

Thanks. I'm finding it really useful, surprised I didn't build one before, so much easier than using styrofoam blocks.
