The principal looks fine, although I’m sure I’d end up knocking it over, that’s a pretty small base if it’s full of brushes - it doesn’t look very stable!
I wouldn’t recommend throwing any contaminated liquid down the sink, or drain, be it watercolour, acrylic, and definitely not turps etc! It has to be disposed of responsibly and legally.

Thanks for the feedback Alan. It is water being poured into the sink. Yes it is a very flexible material, but would only allow for 2 millimetres larger, the soft ring that fits onto the product would be very easy to replace and more rings with varying sizes or a dedicated ring for much larger oil brushes could be manufactured. The base could be made bigger and could possibly be available in 2 sizes, the possible stability issues I will also look into. Do you think that the aesthetic is suitable?
Thanks,
Gareth
