  • Space Stations (updated)

    Continuing with my design for a space station model for Armada, I have what I believe to be a finished set.  Might end up throwing some paint on it, but the setup already looks pretty good.  Posted is a picture with an ISD Interdictor for scale and comparison.  Note that the base of the station…

  • Asteroids

    Continuing my efforts at 3d Armada terrain, I printed out a set of stands for the game, that match the existing published cardboard pieces.  In these cases, I can mount a peg (possibly plastic, likely a thin wooden dowel), and then the plan is a set of lava rock stones.  May or may not paint…

  • Etsy update

    It seems my experiment with Etsy isn’t working out as well as I had hoped – fundamentally I have not sold pretty much anything as of yet.  Perhaps my price point is too high, there is very little interest, I just don’t know what I am doing, or likely, there just isn’t much trust in…

  • 3d printing commissions

    Starting to dabble a bit more into 3d printing for fun and profit, with my first commissioned parts for a friend.  My recent successful prints have given me confidence that I know what I am doing, and can repeatedly succeed on the print jobs.  So my first effort is a printed set of parts, for…

  • SW: Armada Squadron plates

    3d Printer has been running overtime recently, building up my stock of SW: Armada squadron plates.  I have these up for sale on my recently deployed Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/shop/Halfling13Hobbies) site.  Currently I have my listed ship time as 1-2 weeks, primarily so that I didn’t get surprised by a large order before I could create inventory. …

  • Etsy

    With the latest 3d printer design, I decided to dabble a bit into the Etsy scene, and see if this machine might be able to pay for itself somewhat.  If you play Star Wars: Armada (or eventually other games), consider stopping by and placing an order.  Or just take a look at what I have…

  • Star Wars: Armada – squadron trays

    As I continue to tinker with the 3d printer and create miscellaneous tools for various games, I created what I believe is a fairly nice tool for Armada, specifically around the use of Squadrons.  A common issue is that when you have to adjust damage, it is difficult to adjust the model, without moving other…

  • Batman

    Got a bit bored printing boxes for game storage, so I decided to print something fun, and ended up with a bust of Batman as a desk decoration.  Final print is about 6 1/2 inches tall, which sizes well for my desk.  It was printed from a Thingiverse design, with a 0.15 mm resolution and…
