Thank you for all of your kind words! I hope you find everything useful. I saw where you mentioned working on smaller scale and that's my favorite for dioramas. You can pack a lot in to a little base.
Using the balls on the inside to attach with magnets is a smart idea. When I first saw this video I thought you were gluing the magnets to the bottles and using a magnet strip. Yours is even more clever.
Does this affect the paints at all? I know certain pigments are magnetic so I’d assume they’d pool up against the metal ball and potentially cause them to separate from the binding medium.
In my experience, no. A lot of the dark brown paints I use have metal based pigments, Vallejo and Mig. A few I've had for over a year and haven't had any problems with pigment distribution or paint stability once dried. It could be different with other brands though.
If you didn't see my answer please let me know. The paint colors I mentioned and I guess the word for what you put in paint to make it whatever color caused the content to be hidden. Beyond ridiculous.
@@SCM223 no I just saw it, thank you. Only reason I’m inquiring is because I want to store my paints in an old steel toolbox, and instead of cutting out dividers - I though, why not just drop in a rare earth magnet in the paint pots, but didnt want the pigment to settle at the bottom and solidify or something. As with anything in our niche hobby, the internet always has an answer haha. So thank you again.
@@TheArmouryOfficial Nice! Yeah if I remember correctly from art class, they use iron oxide for pigm. sometimes and iron oxide's conductivity is pretty low as far as magnets go. A good mix and you should be good. Thank you for checking my channel out!
Neat idea. Thanks for sharing.
Congratulating on the baby! Have never seen this way of storing paint before. Great idea for small bottles.

Congratulations on becoming a father. Wish you all the best❤
Thank you so much!

To be fair I did glue a few at first, then the magnet caught the shaker ball. More luck than smarts haha.
