Plain & “Pegged” for Art Panels

(these are found in the Root folder)

Functional Storage with Optional Decorative Art Panels

The 4-Drawer Parts Tower was designed as a practical storage solution for makers, hobbyists, artists, model builders, and anyone who appreciates keeping small parts organized and within easy reach.

The system consists of a modular tower core and two drawer options:

• Plain drawers for a clean, traditional appearance.

• Enhanced drawers designed to accept decorative art panels on both sides.

The removable art panels allow the tower to become more than simple storage. Panels can be mixed, matched, replaced, or updated at any time, allowing you to customize the appearance of your workspace while maintaining full drawer functionality.

The drawers feature a smooth sliding fit, generous storage capacity, and a compact footprint suitable for workshops, studios, craft rooms, hobby areas, desks, and workbenches.

Whether you prefer a simple utility organizer or a storage system that reflects your personal interests, the Parts Tower was designed to provide both function and customization in a single modular design.

Woodland Gnome Art Panels

For generations, garden gnomes have quietly occupied flower beds, porches, gardens, and pathways around the world. Often standing motionless as decorations, they became symbols of whimsy, folklore, mystery, and imagination.

This collection gives those familiar figures a life beyond the garden.

Rather than standing idle, these woodland gnomes are shown working, exploring, reading, fishing, gardening, caring for wildlife, gathering supplies, and tending to the natural world around them. Each panel captures a small moment from what might be an ordinary day in a hidden woodland community.

The featured panel depicts a gnome carefully tending a young tree. Industrious, patient, and purposeful, he represents the spirit of stewardship and growth that runs throughout the collection.

Whether displayed by gardeners, nature lovers, fantasy enthusiasts, fairy-tale collectors, or anyone who appreciates imaginative storytelling, these panels celebrate the idea that wonder may exist just beyond the edge of the visible world.

♨️ ANNEALING — Hardening Your Chess Pieces

Annealing your PLA models can improve strength by 10 – 20 %.
If you plan to play with these sets regularly, annealing is highly recommended.

If your goal is display or occasional play, annealing is optional.
The appearance and finish remain unchanged.

Please note: 

Because I’m retired and on a fixed income, I print these models at a smaller scale to save on filament. All of these models are printed at 70% - 80% of the model uploaded size. 

♟️

Thank you!  Thank you!  To all of you who Boost my uploads.  Because of YOU I can get my filament now from “Maker's Supply”, saving me from using real money. 

♟️

These creations are made purely for the joy of sculpting and sharing. Printing at a reduced scale can sometimes affect the quality of fine details; printing at full or larger sizes will yield smoother, more refined results.

♟️

Also, as a 77-year-old maker with hands that sometimes have a mind of their own, I occasionally have to use a little hot-glue surgery to reattach delicate parts. Please handle models with care—especially thin necks, joints, and fragile connectors. Take a moment to study your model before removing supports… or you might find yourself reaching for the glue gun too! 🥲
