2 oz Paint Bottle Shaker
PLEASE FEEL FREE TO REMIX THIS:
So far it is working for me but if you feel like you could tweak it to be better, have at it.
This is just a quick design that mixes 2 oz paint bottles for airbrushing. I designed this because I'm lazy but I am posting this here because it has become pretty popular on Reddit and some are requesting it. I have heard that it may be able to help those with disabilities which is awesome so I thought I would post designs.
I have included some newer versions that will use a basic on/off power button. The original file for the base in the reddit video is also included. Printing the V3 base will shorten the overall print time but V4 should be a lot stronger.
Parts needed:
- A motor (this design uses a 227 RPM Mini Econ Gear Motor from Servo City)

------- Feel free to modify the files to fit whatever motor you have available. - M2.5 x 0.45 (2 bolts) for attaching motor to base
- 608 bearings (skateboard bearings) X 8
- 19mm (3/4) hook and loop fabric for securing bottle to carriage (not neccessary so far but may be a good option if you switch motors with more power).
- 12V 5 Amp power supply, I'm using an old LED stripe power supply. Any 12V supply even a battery will power this little motor.
- Optional On-Off Push-Button switch (11 mm mount diameter).
