Hi, I’m Travis — a lifelong tinkerer, builder, and animal lover. By day, I work as the Chief Architect for a large health tech company, where I help design complex systems that impact millions of lives. But when the laptop closes, I head to my workshop, where I get to continue doing what I love most: robotics, 3D printing, and creative design, in a way that improves the lives of humans and animals.
This shop grew out of that passion. I’ve always been fascinated by how technology can make life better — not just for people, but for the pets and critters we care about, too. Using my engineering background, I design fun, durable, and safe habitats and accessories that bring out the best in their tiny adventurers.
Every item in my shop is something I would proudly use for my own animals, and I hold myself to the same standard I do in my professional work: precision, care, and innovation.
For me, this isn’t just about selling products — it’s about sharing the joy of making, the love of animals, and the belief that even small creatures deserve big imagination.

5 out of 5 starsThis water dish is amazing! It's just the right size for my bigger crab while still being safe for the smaller one. I'm so glad I found this dish. Travis also provides excellent customer service, and I will definitely be using this store for my future hermit crab needs!

4 out of 5 starsExactly as described and pictured, but there are a few sharp edges and pokey bits that I wish were sanded down prior.

Owner
Hi, I’m Travis. I design and build things for fun and curiosity — from robotics and fabrication to 3D printed habitat systems. HQ Shell Club grew out of that mindset: experimenting with better ways to build environments for hermit crabs.
