A carrier for painting panels includes a box-like container including first and second opposing side walls, front and rear walls, and a floor closing the lower end of the container. A stepped track extends along each of the side walls, each stepped track including at least first and second channels for engaging first edges of first and second panels, respectively. The first and second channels are spaced from the corresponding side wall by first and second distances, respectively. The second distance exceeds the first distance by at least 0.25 inch, and preferably by 0.50 inch or by 1.0 inch. Preferably, each stepped track includes a third channel for engaging an edge of a third panel; the third channel is spaced from the corresponding side wall by a third distance which exceeds the second distance by at least 0.25 inch, preferably by 0.50 inch or by 1.0 inch. |

1. A painting carrier for carrying a plurality of painting panels, comprising in combination:
a) a container including:
i. first and second opposing side walls each having opposing forward and rear edges, the first and second opposing side walls being spaced apart from each other;ii. a front wall extending between the forward edges of the first and second opposing side walls;iii. a rear wall extending between the rear edges of the first and second opposing side walls; andiv. a floor coupled to a lower end of each of the first and second side walls, to a lower end of the front wall, and to a lower end of the rear wall; b) a first stepped track extending along the first side wall, the first stepped track including:
i. a first channel for engaging a first edge of a first painting panel, the first channel being spaced from the first side wall by a first distance;ii. a second channel for engaging a first edge of a second painting panel, the second channel being spaced from the first side wall by a second distance, the second distance exceeding the first distance by at least 0.25 inch; and c) a second stepped track extending along the second side wall, the second stepped track including:
i. a first channel for engaging a second opposing edge of the first painting panel, the first channel of the second stepped track being spaced from the second side wall by the first distance;ii. a second channel for engaging a second opposing edge of the second painting panel, the second channel of the second stepped track being spaced from the second side wall by the second distance. |
