  • New paint rack

    New paint rack

    I have been working on a re-design of my painting station, trying to put most of the various pieces up on the wall (using designs by Multiboard). As part of this, I realized that my existing paint racks where rather over-sized. They worked well to store paints, but the angle and size meant that there…

  • Dog Tags update

    Dog Tags update

    Managed to cut and clean up a bunch of the acrylic, and then start to assemble the various components. Overall, I am happy with the look and format. However, there is notable flaws in the laser engraving of the acrylic – I suspect my settings are too hot for both engraving and cutting. Quite a…

  • Bit of Suppression

    Bit of Suppression

    As I continue to develop game aids for Bolt Action and Star Wars Legion, I opted to create a few laser-cut acrylic Suppression and Pin markers. These share a similar design to the cardboard Star Wars Legion tokens, but the intent is to be universal. They are also part of the sizing considerations for the…

  • Bolt Action Scoreboard

    Bolt Action Scoreboard

    Finally caught up (a little) on my product development, and posted out Bolt Action Scoreboard on Etsy (soon to follow here). This includes both a digital download option, as well as the physical laser-cut design, depending on the customer’s capabilities. With the weather starting to warm up, it will be nice to get back into…

  • Bolt Action “Dog Tags”

    Bolt Action “Dog Tags”

    With our recent Bolt Action attention, and my efforts at painting the figures, I have been pondering ideas for various game aids. I already have easier to read order tokens, movement sticks, and clear area of effect templates. What I have been missing however is Pin markers, and markers for Indirect fire tracking. The default…

  • New options for my Wargame Widgets

    New options for my Wargame Widgets

    Based on customer feedback, I added a new line of colors to my 3d printing and have expanded the Wargame Widget line of unit markers. I am now stocking slightly less common colors of purple, orange, yellow, brown and gray, in addition to the original red, blue, black, white and green. This gave me motivation…

  • Settling down

    Settling down

    I think my corrections and fixes are finally settling in, and I have the e-commerce site apparently functional. Only a portion of my Etsy products are listed thus, more to come with likely a bit of an update on some of the photos. Biggest challenge I am running into is just the basic layout, modifying…

  • Unexpected refresh

    Unexpected refresh

    So I was tinkering around with setting up an e-commerce site, to duplicate my Etsy presence on this dedicated site instead. Unfortunately, although the installations themselves worked fine, it ended up wiping out my customized templates and themes. As such, you will no doubt notice a graphics overhaul on the site. I think I got…
