Update 5/6/23 on my Fugly paint cart. I have been using and tweaking my paint cart for a few months here, and I think all the mods are done now. I also included a pic of the back of the cart.
Here is the description I posted when I made the cart:
I used a bunch of scrap wood and tin cans to make a fugly, but functional paint brush/paint organizer. The organizer was built to set on top of my rolling paint cart. At the very top row are magnetic bars on the front and back to hold my 2" and 1" BR brushes. Next row going down is the mounting board for 7 more tin cans (I ran out). Row 3 is 7 cans wide. Bottom row is 5 of the larger tin cans (28 oz size). I made a paper towel holder out of a coat hanger and a piece of pipe. The top section of containers contain my Bob Ross and Gamblin paints. The bottom section of containers are oil paints from other manufacturers (DaVinci, Windsor Newton, Sennelier, Soho Urban, Lukas 1862, Grumbacher). I also paint miniature figures so I have accumulated almost 400 tubes of paint over the years.
Thanks Pam - I am a sucker for ebay lot sales ;)
Wow all I have is 6 spray cans
That’s so awesome Tony! Super functional and well put together! ! I love to zoom in and see everything you have in there!
Wow you really have a lot of art supplies. I only have a few brushes, my two inch brush already has been used for more than 100 paintings :) Still I have the same.
I thought that I was looking at the paint aisle in a small hardware store Tony! lol very nice work!
I am a sucker for 'lot' sales Brian. I just bought a lot of 27 Princeton brushes on ebay the other day that sell retail for $600ish. I got the lot for $80.

Such an awesome organizer for all of your supplies! I will say, you have at least 20x more than I think I have LOL! Believe it or not I have (1) 2" brush, (1) blender brush, and (1) 1" brush that are my original ones since July 2021. I have replaced my fans and liners more often as well as adding different smaller brushes.
