The Maker & The Forge

I’m based out of Austin, Texas, and Forge and Foil is a complete one-man show. I make everything myself. I build the templates from scratch, type out the card effects word-for-word, I make the texturing, what’s glossy, and what’s holographic.

I source the card stock and print the backs myself. I even cut every single card and round every corner by hand. To be honest, they aren’t all factory perfect. You’ll find some rough edges or small quirks here and there, but I think that’s where the charm is. They’re handmade.

About Me

I’ve been a One Piece fan since I was 10 or 11 years old. I started playing the card game back in OP-03, well before Blue Doffy was considered broken. He is still my favorite leader to this day.

I’m at my locals in Austin about twice a week, but you’ll also find me at events across Texas, usually in Dallas. If you see me out there, always feel free to say hello. I’m always down to talk One Piece or show you what I’m working on at the forge.
