Balancing full-time jobs, fatherhood, and a side hustle isn’t easy—but for two passionate hobbyists and lifelong friends, it was the perfect storm for launching something meaningful.
Welcome to our story—two dads, one vision, and a shared love for the miniature wargaming community. Like many in the hobby, we struggled with safely transporting and displaying our painted miniatures. Between fragile foam trays and clunky boxes, we knew there had to be a better solution.
So we created it!
Our business was born out of a simple idea: build high-quality magnetic miniature display and transport cases that are durable, practical, and designed for real gamers.
Whether you're a Warhammer enthusiast, a Dungeons & Dragons dungeon master, or a competitive tournament player, our cases protect your models while showing them off in style.
By day, we work full-time jobs. By night, we’re testing materials, refining product designs, answering customer questions, and packing orders in between bedtime routines and family dinners. It's not just a business—it’s a lifestyle powered by caffeine, freindship, and creativity.
As fathers and gamers, we understand what it means to juggle responsibilities and still carve out time for your passions. That's why our products are designed with real-life in mind—easy to use, easy to carry, and tough enough for the road.
Our mission? To become the go-to name in miniature wargaming accessories, offering smart, functional, and beautiful hobby storage solutions that support your passion. Whether you're new to the hobby or a seasoned player, we’re here to help you protect your army and elevate your game.
This journey is about more than just products. It's about proving that with hard work, trust, and a shared dream, friends can become founders—even while raising kids and holding down day jobs.
Thanks for supporting our story. And welcome to the community—we’re just getting started.
