One local entrepreneur is taking his love of Lego ’round the world, putting smiles on a lot of faces along the way.
Arlington resident and Naval Chief Petty Officer Kris Walter creates oversized 3D-printed Lego-style figures and offers the printable designs through his Walter’s World online monthly subscription service on Patreon.
Walter, who serves at the Naval base in Millington, moved with his family to Arlington from Jacksonville, Florida, in September after being reassigned.
