Artifact Armory

Artifact Armory is changing

Real wood on a printed frame.

Anybody with a printer can build it. You cut the wood yourself. No power tools. The files are free.

You don't need a shop to have real wood on your desk. You need a printer.

A day after they're glued, I try to rip every one apart. If none of them hold, I've got a problem.

Results come in the next video. The list gets the full chart first.

A card showcase.

It's the first build, and it's not out yet.

When it is, the files are free. The list gets them a week early, with the wood cut list.
