🎅 OH NO... GRUMPY'S STARTED CHRISTMAS ALREADY! 🎄😂

We know, we know... it's only October!

But Christmas is coming, and things are already getting busy in Grumpy's workshop! 🔨

From regimental crests and personalised military gifts to handcrafted wall plaques and Grumpy gear, we've got plenty of gift ideas for the veteran in your life.

🎁 Many of our products are made to order, and with only so many weeks left to get everything made, finished and delivered, now's the time to start thinking about Christmas.

And because it's Grumpy, we couldn't resist giving Christmas a bit of a rock 'n' roll makeover! 🎸🤘

84 years today!

The Corps of Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers was formed on 1 October 1942.

To mark REME’s Corps birthday, here is one of my hand-carved REME badges alongside one of my Large 3D Printed badges, finished in our tarnished effect.

A big shout-out to all REME personnel, past and present. Happy Corps birthday!

A Royal Green Jackets crest, made to a custom size for a customer.

Y’know... not quite Large and not quite Medium! 😁

That’s one of the advantages of making these ourselves. If you need something a little different, get in touch and we’ll see what we can do.

And if you like what I do, please give the video a share. It really does help a small veteran-run business get seen. 👍

I’ve had quite a few requests for this one and it’s finally here!

Complete your display with the Grumpy Old Veteran 3D Printed Badge, now available to order in a range of sizes.

The one shown in the video is a Large, 50cm badge with our tarnished effect finish, but we can make them smaller or go much bigger if you want something with real impact.

Perfect for the man cave, office, workshop, bar or military display.

You can order yours directly from me or through the website.

If you’d like one, drop me a message.

Afternoons...more recent work from the Grumpy bench. I now do mess crests...have been for a while now, and here are a couple for a customer from last week.

Real hardwood back shield - crest relief printed onto an aluminium back plate. Relief print raises the image giving a great textured look and feel.

Any service, any regiment, any posting...any design you want!

Morning! Here's a little custom crest for a buddy of mine that I did last week.
I do all types of Crests/signs/shields/pet art. If you're looking for something for a unique display or gift, get in touch.

It's getting busy but the order book is open.

I make to order.
