Hey Everyone
The guys who made the Everlasting Wet Palette have a new Kickstarter coming up for a painting handle, what do you guys think?

Looks like a 3D printed curtain rail cut down with blutack on the end

Nonono, it's "custom made mounting putty".
Totally different from blutack.
While I do own the palette, which is nice despite the broken "everlasting" promise, this seems... underwhelming.

When I clicked the link I honestly expected something out of this world but it's just a curved grip and a 360 degree top that looks like it'll annoy the hell out of me.
I don't know what to expect from the putty when blue tack or silly putty will do the job just fine.
I'll stick to my old citadel paint pot.

I have the same issue with the palette, i complained and after a lot of back and forth they replaced it for me (jsut the case though, none of the other pars. (which is fair enough). Still, when I write this up as a review. I'll make sure to mention the Everlastingness.

eh, I don't see this really being more useful than my cut up dowels with blue-tac and the citadel painting handles.

Pretty much this. It's going to be a hard sell against those handles out there already that don't look like something you could whip up yourself in 10 minutes.
I have to say, I'm also steadfastly against painting handles that require you to blu-tack or glue your model to something other than their base in order to hold them (there's another one out there that has you stick the model's base to a bottle cap, and then screw that onto the holder. Just... no) That's, for me, the big thing that GW got right - a painting handle should actually hold the base. Don't make me rely on the questionable (and variable) adhesiveness of reusable putty.

I don't use painting handles, personally. Not to dog pile on this, but as constructive feedback - I see no point in this when other options (equally costed) exist. It appears to be a non-product.
