Portable Paint Station
Description
I live in a small apartment, so everything I do needs to collapse down and store away. After recently getting back into miniatures I needed a way to keep all of my paint and supplies together and easily accessIble. The front is a work surface for cutting and painting. The middle, storage areas that open like shutters. And the back an filter and fan housing to create a 'bit' of negative pressure while spraying (doesn't give a lot of suction with only the two 120mm fans).

I also use this for the self healing mat boarder for since it matched the thickness of the mat: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/cutler-group-standard-hardboard-panel-1-8-inches-x-2-feet-x-2-feet/1000434563 Thicker 1/4" birch ply for everything else: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/cutler-group-1-4-inch-x-2-feet-x-4-feet-birch-plywood-handy-panel/1000114111 self healing mat: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B0027RL0SA/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
