An improved version of the 3D printed spray paint can handle. Optimized specifically for Behr Premium spray paint cans, Â may be compatible with others.
Similar to other improved versions, it uses screws to clamp onto the rim of the can, however, the clamping mechanism isn't integrated into the handle. Two heat set inserts and two M3 screws are required, resulting in a much more secure grip on the can.
M3 screws and inserts can vary in length, depending on the how the insert is set/how the material melts. The trigger is inserted into the handle from the underside, then the printed trigger pin is inserted to secure the trigger.
Supports highly recommended to print the clamp and handle surfaces that mount to the spray paint can's rim, all other regions can be blocked with a support blocker.Â
