I needed to redo blueing on my Uberti Remington 1858 “New Model Army” revolver. I needed a way to keep them upright, with as little of them touching anything as possible, to cold blue the whole surface at one go. I designed this simple stand with integrated spacer. It is just tall enough to work. You can rotate the cylinder on the stand using only a q-tip, the same you use to apply blueing gel or paste.
Always wear gloves when using harsh chemicals, but using this stand allows for a very minimal contact of the hand with already covered parts of the cylinder - good for uniform coating.
I only tested it on Uberti 1858, but as long as the central hole is between 5 and 6.5mm it should fit any model and manufacturer. It prints in a quarter hour using little filament, so it shouldn't harm to test it.
Print in ASA for chemical resistance.
