ABSTRACT:
A lightweight paint carrier system for use with artist's acrylic paint containers or bottles of a fixed size and cylindrical shape. A number of generally circular trays are provided with a central post. The trays nest together with one tray nesting atop another to form either a single layer assembly or two or three layer assembly. The trays of the second and higher layers mount onto the post of the tray below and are supported therefrom in a cantilever fashion. The trays are of two types--a base which includes an artist's water basin surrounded by twelve wells for receiving the bottom of the bottles and an intermediate layer tray which has wells uniformly distributed on its upper surface for receiving eighteen of the paint containers. A top is provided for either the one base tray or the stack of nested trays and a handle having a rod of a length sized to accommodate a single tray stack or a multiple stack array is provided. The handle's rod has spring biased means for being manually and easily releasably latched to the base tray and is sized so as to secure together for transport and storage the top and the base tray together with any intermediate stacked trays. The system when stacked and latched holds paint containers seated in the wells by "sandwiching" them between adjacent trays or between a tray and the top.
