Tech 3D Printing: Do you make/design things?

I would really like to find someone to print up some extended baseplates for a Sig P290RS. The gun was never popular and then was discontinued, so accessories are few and far between. The extended 8 round mag is too long and the baseplate for the 6-round mag is too short (even after Sig redesigned it to be slightly longer than a flush fit). A baseplate for the redesigned 6-round mag that is just 1/2” (or 1 cm) longer would be perfect.
 
got a printer for the purpose of relearning my cad. got lazy and haven't used it in years. I made toolhead holders. i helped the original dude on thingaverse that designed the bulletfeeder. i made different caliber plates for that feeder. primer flip tray. broke a powder funnel so i made a new one. Now just gathers dust.
 
Would a 3d printed clay (plastic) pigeon be less brittle and not break when hit with a normal target load?

It would be funny to have a few and paint them to match real clay pigeons, then stick them in the trap machine and see how the grumpy old trap shooters react.
 
Bob. Look up the ZZ bird game. Also known as Helice. They have it at Redlands on the weekends. The center white clay is made of hard plastic like you described.

I’ll try and find a picture or a video and post it here.
 
Bob, this video shows you the equipment, and some actual shooting, but does come close to seeing them fly in person/real life.

 
Google “ZZ bird trap shooting game” and tap videos. I tried, but still can’t find a good video that compares to seeing it in person.
 
3D printed rail scales in ABS because no way was I paying those prices lol
