SAAMI-ish 500 Smith & Wesson magnum wall art

About SAAMI-ish:

Most cartridges of the world are standardized. There is two major standardizing institutes in the world - one of them is called S.A.A.M.I. SAAMI-ish 2d wall art is inspired by their standards.

SAAMI-ish is fan-art. Each board are my interpretation of the SAAMI standard for that specific cartridge. All measurements come from the SAAMI standard when the cartridge is standardized - but remember, these are interpretations and as such they are NOT, by any means, at scale.

All cartridges are available in both metric and imperial with the exception of the few non SAAMI cartridges, those are only available as metric. 

About 500 Smith & Wesson magnum: 

The cartridge was developed in 2003 by Smith & Wesson who had been the top leading manufacturer of powerful handgun cartridges for the most part of the 1900s but had lost that position due to the 454 Casull, which had been a wildcat since late 1950s, entering the market as a production load through Ruger. The 500 Smith & Wesson is considered a suitable cartridge for handgun hunting and as a self defence cartridge against large dangerous game both in North America and Africa.

About the frame:

The frame can be printed with a stand for table placement, Skadis/Skådis pegs for mounting the frame to a Skadis/Skådis board or pegs and bracket for a french cleat style mount on a wall. Print the frame and which ever mounting you prefer, then print your favorite cartridge(s).

• The table stand will mount in the center of the frame.

  

   

• The skadis/skådis pegs has a snug fit by design but different printers and different filaments will push tolerances and depending on those factors it will be more or less snug. If it seems too loose, a drop of super glue may solve the problem. I recommend using the same filament and color for the pegs as the frame. 

  

   

• The french cleat uses the same technique as the skadis/skådis pegs. Just mount the correct peg on the frame, screw the bracket to the wall and hang the frame. The bracket has three mounting holes that can be reached through the frame, before placing the art piece, making it easier to level the frame.
