How to assemble the Paint Rack Combo 84

How to assemble the Paint Rack Combo 84: an interactive 3D guide in 7 steps. Turn, zoom and explode the model, then build it step by step.

1. Step 1 · Wedge drawer. The rack arrives as one printed piece. Slide the wedge drawer into the tunnel from the side it opens on until it sits flush. It closes with a friction wedge fit. Shown with the left-pull drawer; a right-pull rack takes it from the right. No glue and no screws anywhere in this set.
2. Step 2 · Build the gallery. Lay the left post down and push the ears of the three shelves through its windows: the single 8-bottle shelf in the lowest window, the two 15-bottle double shelves above it (Citadel shelves, if you picked them, go in the top windows). Then slide the right post onto the other ears.
3. Step 3 · Locking wedges. Push a locking wedge, head up, into the slot in each shelf ear on the outside of the posts and press it down until it is snug. 6 wedges in total. They pull the shelves tight against the posts; tap them up to take the gallery apart again.
4. Step 4 · Pins. Push the 2 diamond pins, fat end down, into the two diamond holes in the top of the rack near the back. The thin ends stand up out of the rack.
5. Step 5 · Rail plate. Lower the rail plate onto the rack top so the thin ends of the pins go through the two holes in the rail, and the hooks at each end go over the rack's sloping top front edge. The 8 slots along its front hold 8 more bottles, standing on the rack top.
6. Step 6 · Gallery on. Lower the built gallery onto the rail: the tenon at the bottom of each post drops into the socket at each end of the rail. It lifts straight off again whenever you want the plain rack back.
7. Step 7 · Done. 274 mm wide, 122 mm deep and 650 mm tall. With 3 dropper shelves it holds 84 dropper bottles: 38 in the rack, 8 on the rail plate and 38 on the shelves. Stand it at the back of your desk, or hang it on the 3 keyhole mounts (screws not included). If you added the optional Under-Drawer, it arrives fitted: the rack stands on the pedestal and the drawer slides in under it. Paints not included.
