After much experimentation I have finalised the design for our wall mounted/hanging paint racks.
First up are a couple for Vallejo paints; Small rack that holds 30 (shown) and Large that holds 66. Available in MDF or Acrylic. As with all our products we are more than happy to produce customised versions to suit your needs.

Now available on the Sphere Products website.
 
Looks like there is a slight upward tilt of the bottles, am I right? Looks very sturdy, I like it.

Thanks Joe,

yes the bottles are set 10 degrees above horizontal; mainly to stop them falling out althogh the shape of the holes also holds them fairly securely.
 
Now there is a familiar idea, good work Jon. definitely worth the effort of getting them together mate, well done

Are these still available? I've been looking for some way of storing my Vallejo paint.
 
I have about 360 bottles today, and I'm quite sure I'll get more in the future.
What's the most economic and still practical solution?
And I need to have them shipped to Sweden.
 
Shipping to Sweden shouldn't be a problem as all our racks are supplied as flat-packed kits. Do you prefer the wall mounted racks; if so how much wall space do you have available? If you can let me know I'll design something to suit. If you are limited foe wall space then a combination of wall mounted and free standing racks may be an option.
 
Wall mounted would probably be the best, but I'm open to suggestions.
I want it easy to access the paint, and easy to organise at the same time. It takes ages to locate a single bottle as it is now.
 
Initially, I would like to keep within 38 x 120cm (15 x 47 inches) and 38 x 75cm (15 x 29.5 inches) . I have space for more, but those two spaces are not used at the moment.
 
I better try to illustrate my needs.
My desk is in the corner of a room with an angled roof. Thats why Im a bit sceptical of making the racks exactly to the space.
I have made a very clumsy and basic drawing (my Paint-skills with the mouse needs working on) that might explain it. The green areas are where I was thinking of having the racks now, and the orange area is what Im thinking of using as an expansion area.

These look good Jon, a great space-saving idea. Have just moved house and might be in the market for a couple of these to replace the desktop versions - depending on the final layout of the new man-cave.
