Stonegate Creations Studio (SGCS) is a Service-Disabled Veteran owned certified business registered under a series LLC in the state of Texas. I use the word “we” a lot in general when describing Stonegate Creations because I wouldn’t be doing this without the support, encouragement, and inspiration of my family, but the day-day operations is just me: some guy named Fred.
SGCS started in 2009 as a Halloween prop-making business with a product called Skull-Ezz, inspired by the Paris catacombs. These were a variety of specially formulated plaster skulls that could be mounted on walls, tombstones, or other surfaces both indoors and outdoors. Professional haunted houses and home haunt enthusiasts throughout the country used them. I was tracking close to 20 states these were shipped to during their initial run, but they were a seasonal item and production slowly ceased. The original molds are in storage so maybe they will make a comeback one day.
SGCS was re-born in 2017 making custom GI Joe HISS tank accessories using our first 3d printers. Soon after requests came in to make other items and the GI Joe reproductions expanded along with Buck Rogers, Space 1999, and some Star Wars stuff. Injection molding was the first real capital investment and from there the capabilities and products grew each year.
I am approaching 30 years’ experience in manufacturing specializing in machining and tool making. SGCS’s current capabilities are:
- 2 Bambu Lab FDM 3d printers
- Prusa XL FDM 3d printer
- Vivedino Trodoon 500 FDM 3d printer
- 2 Anycubic Mono X 4k and 1 Anycubic Mono M5s 12K DLP 3d printers
- EMAKE3d Galaxy 1 SLA 3d printer
- LMI R4x dual camera 3d scanner
- Shining Einstar handheld 3d scanner
- Thunk3d JS300 jewelry 3d scanner
- 4 Emco 2/3 oz benchtop injection molders
- Medium Machinery 2 oz injection molder
- 130 watt C02 laser engraver/cutter with 51×32 bed
- Novakon Torus Pro CNC mill
- 4×8 Shopbot CNC router
- Southbend 8×26 lathe
- 175 amp wire feed welder
- 220 amp TIG/arc welder
- Cameo Silhouette vinyl cutter
My goal is taking this business full time as I really enjoy making custom and reproduction stuff.
