If I’m not making something, I’m thinking about making something.
My name is Chad Ryg and I’m the only one in the world with that name.
I’m a married father of 2 creative and brilliant boys. My number 1 project!
I joined in the Army in 1995 and recently retired. There are so many unknowns in the coming adventure for my family and I!
-Expanding and making viable the business of MAKING!
-The coming high school years!
Follow my “Let’s Make Stuff!!” Channel to come along on this journey!
And finally - There are hundreds if not thousands of fake accounts on me in all social media and online dating platforms. You do not have to contact me to tell me about it and most certainly, do not contact me to accuse me of scamming you. This has been going on since approximately 2011 and if I wanted to respond to everyone, I’d be breaking up with 1 or 2 women everyday. It’s very time consuming.
Now that that is behind us, feel free to follow along and I’m sorry for whatever emotional and/or financial trauma that’s caused you.

Original Graphics and Designs
A couple of years ago, the Army separated me from my tools so I couldn’t make much. But I could still make digital designs. So out of boredom I started digitally Making and throwing designs up on Etsy to see what would happen.
Well, I found out!
Almost 5000 sales later I’m still doing it.
My Top Seller (700+)
This was my first graphic that really got traction. These graphics primarily go to t-shirt printers but I’ve seen them cut into signs, blankets and towels, stickers, and cornhole boards.
I have these graphics for almost every football team, and some other sports like hockey, basketball, and baseball.
I do my best to keep them updated and will update them on notice.
