I am designing and 3-D printing 1911 grips, with photos illustrating various style options. I will have these on display at the Conroe gun show at the end of the month, or you can contact me now to place an order for a set crafted from ASA filament, which offers excellent UV resistance and durability.

My Godzilla display stand is designed to accommodate a range of items, including ammunition boxes and small planters. While I wish I could take credit for the idea, it was actually my four-year-old grandson who came up with it by using a Godzilla toy as a makeshift table at the June gun show in Conroe, Texas. This is a mockup of the display. We expect our Godzilla exhibit to be a fun and engaging conversation starter.

Not everything in my booth is for sale.

Sometimes I build things simply because I can.

I've been a Godzilla fan for as long as I can remember, so when a large 3D print failed and only the lower half printed successfully, I decided not to throw it away. Instead, I turned it into something unique for my display at the Conroe Gun Show.

The tabletop started as a 14-inch Baltic birch round. I designed and engraved a Godzilla tribute coin into the surface, painted it black, then laser engraved it to create the contrast you see. After that, I poured approximately 1/4 inch of epoxy over the top to give it a deep, glossy finish and protect the artwork.

To assemble it, I drilled a 3/4-inch hole into the tabletop and a matching hole into the Godzilla print. The tabletop is glued in place, and the lower half of Godzilla acts as the base. What started as a failed print became one of the coolest pieces in my shop.

This stand isn't for sale. It's going to be used in my booth to display some of my products and hopefully catch the attention of fellow Godzilla fans wandering through the show.

Just goes to show that sometimes a mistake in the shop turns into something better than the original plan.

If you're attending the Conroe Gun Show, stop by and check it out. I'd love to hear what you think.

I was commissioned to create a personalized godfather request engraving on a wine box featuring a 30 mm A10 round, an intriguing request that I accepted, and here is the end result
