Business Card Travel Palette


Ive been wanting to try a business card holder palette for a while. I thought about getting the small makeup metallic pans everyone is using, but I do not like the idea of using metal pans for my watercolors. 

I made 2 different designs to hold 14 colors, the size and shape of each palette is different depending on the artist preference. I personally prefer longer pans because they are more gentle with the tip of my brushes.

I designed both palettes using OpenSCAD, and I shared the files on Printables for personal use under Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International - Creative Commons license. 

If you are going to print it, make sure to check the size of your business card holder. I had 3 different ones. two are the same size, the other one was bigger. I added the measurements to know which version you need to print. 

Small Size 
Designed to fit a business card holder with outside dimensions 94mm x 59mm x 7mm 
Palette dimentions: 91mm x 55mm x 4.5mm 

Medium Size 
Designed to fit a business card holder with outside dimensions 94mm x 62mm x 7mm 
Palette dimentions: 91mm x 58mm x 4.5mm

Each print takes about 1 hour 30 minutes in my trusty Ender 3V2 and uses 11 grams of filament. Even if you don't have a 3D printer, you can ask if your Public Library or local Hackerspace has one you can use for a short period of time


I really hope someone else can find this design useful. 

Enjoy!
