The 4A Métal assisted folding system
Each fold line is laser-cut in a discontinuous pattern: thin slots separated by small steel bridges. These bridges hold the piece together and act as a hinge. You bring the fold to its angle by hand, using locking pliers, and you control the final angle.

These lines are already integrated into the DXF file: you start the cut, and the folding system comes directly off the machine.
We design. We cut. We fold. We assemble. Only then do we sell the file.
The trophy that stands on its own
Proud posture, antlers spread like a crown, the bust rises on its pedestal. No wall needed: the deer head stands on a piece of furniture, a console table, or a mantelpiece, and can be viewed from all angles. Each facet catches the light differently, and the sculpture changes appearance depending on the time of day and where you look at it from. At 70 cm tall including the pedestal, it makes a statement in a room without overwhelming it.
