Unfortunately I don't have space for a dedicated modeling work area, which means I have to be able to move my supplies around often. Storing the tools and spare parts has been fairly easy, but I haven't found a good way to store my paints in a way that makes them easily accessible but also easy to move. Making it even more difficult is that I have so many different sizes of paint bottles. Any suggestions?

I use a tool box w/a removable upper tray for the paints. The rest of my tools go in the lower area under the tray. I am in the military and move pretty often. When I set up my bench, the tray pulls out and becomes my paint holder as well. You can see it on the right of the desk shelves in the below pic.



This has worked for me for over 20 years.
