Lounge Chairs
Lounge Chairs
The folding lawn chair is an American summertime classic. Lightweight and durable, the portable chairs are carted to campouts and tailgates, backyard barbecues and beaches. I wonder how many Fourth of July fireworks have been admired from the webbed seat of a classic aluminum lawn chair? How many great summer memories from your youth are punctuated with the sound of those chairs being snapped open?
The rise of this all-American staple coincided with the growth of suburbs after World War II, when homes with larger lawns were suddenly more affordable. Aluminum production soared during the war, since it was used in the structural framing of military aircraft. After the war, manufacturers sought other uses for the strong yet lightweight material. Turns out, narrow aluminum tubing was great for making chairs.
It was actually a WWII veteran turned inventor who designed the original lawn chair. A former P-38 combat fighter pilot named Fredric Arnold came up with the idea of streamlining an existing collapsible chair that had been used for decades in schools and churches. His original design in 1947 was more crude and less sturdy than today's metal folding chairs, but was it was influenced by the stripped-down utilitarian designs of the early mid-century modern period. 1.

Thank you for creating great products and great service.
I love your 3D prints! They are simply awesome. Painting them is fun!
That is great looking corn coming from a former farmer.
I received my MINIME and other prints and they are fantastic! Your work is incredible and so realistic. I am recommending miniprints to others. Keep up the great work!!!!
Excellent 3D models and highly detailed with little to no lines.
Just wanted to drop a line and tell you how thrilled I am with your products. I now have numerous items of miniprints and everyone who sees my layout, as it progresses, is amazed at them.
Exceptionally detailed and intricate! These otherwise hard to find details are perfect for adding an additional bit of life to your model train layout!
I have several miniprints details on my layout, and have some more in the works. Great detail, very unusual and they bring a scene to life.
You are actually an excellent resource for some hard to find items. I’m gonna sit down and really go through your catalog and place a larger order. Thanks for what you do!
Just funny, clever, and great! Sometimes the “H” in HO has to stand for “humor”!! I am still smiling & chuckling. I know, simple pleasure for a simple mind…. Anyway, thank you, and well done.
Everything arrived in perfect condition!
miniprints is a great place to find unique products to super detail your model railroad scenes, and they make 3D models for just about any layout.
Your products add SOOO much to every scene on my layout.
Amazing inventory of 3D printed models and figures for your model railway needs
miniprints has some of the finest figures and details available in the market today.
These guys are the real deal!
miniprints has provided me with these amazing animals (and others) with great details for their size. I was extremely happy to finally find a quality N scale product that no one else offers!
Your products are incredible! I model N scale and came across them through the AML podcast and ordered a few things and I am more than pleased with the products you sent me.
I have received some beautiful animals today from miniprints and the details are the best I’ve ever seen when it comes to HO scale animals. Job well done!
Thank you. The MINIMEs arrived safely. I think MINIMEs are Macro ‘Mazing!
Thanks very much for the excellent products you make. Items arrived safe and sound, great packaging and pretty quick shipping.
Definitely getting some of these!
They look so good. Makes the layout come alive.
I just had to take a moment and comment how incredible your products are. They arrive clean and crisp. I have a 3d Resin printer myself that I use for some pieces but in all honesty it isn’t worth it for me to print the items I can buy from you. Awesome job.
Looking good…will be much welcomed addition to my club The Hamilton Society of Model Railroads – HSMR.
You continue to design & produce wonderful details that I feel are/were overlooked by modelers.
Very happy with the product as well as the shipping times.
This exceeded my expectations. Instead of choosing which building to put it in, I may have to order another one. Totally Awesome product!!!
Well, you’re doing an amazing job and I can’t think of a higher quality print.
Very nice figures. True to scale. No cleanup needed ready for paint.
You have created some very beautiful castings. The detail is exquisite, and I plan to order more of your work!
miniprints has opened model railroading up to a new world of detail. Thank you.
I just wanted to give a quick shoutout to miniprints. If you haven’t heard about them then you’ve been living under a rock! Bernard makes some of the best 3D resin printed details and definitely the most unique in the industry!
You have filled a big modelling hole.
I got my package today and its awesome job once again. Thank you.
miniprints stands out as high quality with prices that you don’t have to explain when the wife looks at the bank account.
Unbelievably tiny and yet so detailed!
Your models never cease to amaze me.
Awesome service, great products.
There are a lot of people producing and selling the 3D prints. Your variety and quality is still the best….superb!
Received my miniprints order yesterday. The quality of the items was astounding. Best I have seen. Thanks for all your hard work.
WOW! All I have to say as a 50 year HO modeller is WOW!
Great details. Adds so much to the overall realism of the layout. Thanks!
Holly c@#p I had to do a double take to see if they were actually real or models. Fantastic and you are truly an artist.
Great company and products. I love the touch of fun and humor in your catalogue. Thanks for making quality detail products that are essential to a great layout but nobody else seems to make!
The quality is awesome and they offer a large range of items. They are always coming up with new products.
Our layout is sort of a “scavenger hunt” of oddities. This is a perfect addition.
Thanks again for my latest tiny critters. I received my order today and was amazed all over again.
Just received my order AWESOME, These things are just AWESOME, so detailed. Everybody needs to check you out.
Thank you for providing detail items that are both unique and inexpensive.
