Print Profile(3)
Description
Tired of trying to redo your walls and spilling hard-to-clean paint everywhere? The Paint Buddy solves this problem with a simple snap-on mouth that makes it easy to pour paint from its can into a tray for a roller or any other receptacle.

Features:
- Easy to print + low cost: 34 grams, 1.5 hour print time
- Reusable
- Minimal drip lip
- Easy to clean: Designed with minimal ridges and crevices compared to standard commercial equivalents (see picture), making it easy to wash away stubborn paint
- Simple snap-on construction: Creates tight seal to prevent paint from leaking during pouring
- Available with holes for hanging
After using the paint spout available at Lowes' to pour paint while redoing a room, I quickly grew tired of spending 20 minutes cleaning away dried acrylic from the overengineered lid, so this 3D printed version strips away unnecessary surface area and adds a better mouth that doesn't allow paint to drip so easily.

PLA, tree supports, standard strength/wall settings
