In Dead Space 3, unlike the 2 previous games, you can craft and customise your own weapons to your personal tastes.

As you play through the game, you will get to find some unique "frames", which grant special stats bonus, unlike the regular frames which don't do anything special (taken from Dead Space 3 Fandom page about Weapon Parts):

  • Weller's Compact Frame: A frame for one-handed weapons, has built in RLD +4. Only supports Top tools.
  • Hammond's Heavy Frame: A frame for two-handed weapons, has built in CLP +3. Only supports Top tools.
  • EarthGov Compact Frame: A frame for one-handed weapons, has built in SPD +3.
  • S.C.A.F. Heavy Frame: A frame for two-handed weapons, has built in DMG +3.

These stats boosts look very helpful to make your customised weapons even stronger. However, you can find only one copy of each and they can't be crafted, which means only one of your weapons can have it.

Is there any way to acquire more than one?
