Tim Sloan of TS Productions has let Armorama know of his latest foray into producing modelling products, This time around it is a series of storage products for consumables such as paint and glue.
I am sure all of us at some time have knocked over a paint or glue container, and while we are quietly swearing at ourselves our partners are being slightly more vocal on the subject. Well this new line of products from TS Productions could be the answer to avoiding that scenario. The other scenario is wasting huge amounts of time looking for a specific paint colour that for reasons known only to the gods is not where you put it last; at least that’s what we tell the wife as we troop off to the shop to buy another bottle.

These new offerings could answer a lot of problems; with various manufacturers releasing their liquid products in containers with a high centre of gravity, these containers will keep them upright and help to make them easier to find. The storage racks if used as I would let you know when you need to replace a certain colour by the gap in the rack. These products are available in acrylic and MDF and TS Productions will be expanding these line to cover all kinds of paints ,with different styles, and also to hold different amounts of bottles. Below is the data supplied to Armorama.

First up is our Glue Pallet.
It holds Testors Liquid Cement, Ambroid or Tenax bottles, medium sized CA bottles and small tube CA, along with two spots for your applicator brushes. This piece measures 6"W x 1.5" H x 2.5" D

Second we have the acrylic 72 count wall hanger.
Designed to hold Vallejo/Andrea type bottles. This rack holds up to 64 Vallejo bottles ,and 8 more holes which are slightly larger for either the same style, or the odd ball paint you have. The rack measures 13"W x 11"H x 3" D

The next design shown is made from MDF, but can also be cut from acrylic.
This one is designed to hold Vallejo, Andrea, or Reaper type bottles. This rack holds up to 24 bottles, and 14 holes for paint brushes. The rack measures 9"W x8" D

This one also made from MDF can also be cut from acrylic.
Designed to hold AK Interactive or Badger/Freak Flex type bottles. This rack holds up to 20 bottles ,and 6 holes for paint brushes. The rack measures 9"W x8" D

Funny you should ask that Andy as I have asked TS Productions the same question, and I have been told they will look into it.

If you could let me know what they say Darren I'd appreciate it. Otherwise I'll have to resort to my non-existent woodworking skills :-O

The one designed for the AK Interactive will also hold the Tamiya 10ml jars since theyre the same diameter.

One for regular bottles like Master Models would be appreciated. It would clean up the mess on my work bench, LOL!

The desk top rack we have can be adjusted to fit the model master. I just have to change the hole size. Im working on expanding the width of the design though to accommodate more paints , right now it would only hold 20 MM bottles. I want to lengthen it by 15mm to hold 24.
