This is a paint brush cleaner that I made to help clean out my 1 inch and larger paintbrushes.
It's printed solid in PLA, and has guide holes for inserting wire nails into it that separate the bristles which helps to get the paint out of the brush and keep it working as if new. I also found that it was able to remove some dried paint stuck between the bristles from older brushes that weren't cleaned well and made them work significantly better.
To finish after the print, push some small wire nails through the holes from the completely flat side of the print, and then take a soldering iron with a fine tip and touch the back of the nails to get them to melt down into the handle about half way through. The PLA will flow back partially over the head of the nail securing it in place.
