Droneoutlaw Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) These are Some DIY AB Paint Stands that my buddy "FREDDIE" helped me with. They are totally interchangeable & capable of moving in just about any direction or angles needed (the goalpost looking ones arms & base swivel) for your part needing to be painted. I built them using cast iron flanges 3/4" + all 3/4" pipe & fittings. I just add some 10-15lb mounting tape to the different size plastic bushings, that hold the part. The Iron Flange & Pipe fittings add enough weight to give your part that nice STURDY SOLID feeling to your parts needing paint! I added some leftover gloss rattlecan black paint enamel on the iron sections making them cleanable & looking nice.... Very Simple to make, inexpensive & easy to locate parts at most any Hardware shop.... enjoy, Lee Edited September 28, 2017 by Droneoutlaw Added description topic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High octane Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 (edited) I've been usin' this one for years with great results as it was made by Shabo. Shabo has been out of business for a long while, but I don have another somewhere that's brand new and still in the packaging.

randyc Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Now get a lazy susan and put pins/bolts up thru the bottom. Make them fit the pattern of the flanges and you can secure the flange with nuts or gravity to a rotating stand. Just a thought.... I use a lazy susan with coat hangers screwed to the bottom. The hangers are bent over at the top to sorta fit any car body. I llike to rotate the body as I'm painting and don't have to pick it up or touch anything except the edge of the lazy susan.
