I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn’t work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.
Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!
It went from stupid purchase to something I’d gladly replace if it broke.
A 3D-Printer, I thought I just play around with it and get bored, but you discover so many things that you can do!
The handle on the fridge broke? Print new ones. Need a Flowerpot? Just print one. The router needs a wallmount? I have one ready in a few Hours.
Also I can watch it print for hours, very fascinating and calming.
ventilate my dude. read up on breathing around your 3D printer while its printing. no bueno
Micro plastics making me feel spastic!
E: if you know the song I will give you a Lemon
I got one to print parts for my drones thinking it would be no big deal and it turned in to a hobby in itself.
Wait until you start printing more printers
I remember literally watching it for an hour when it was new, it was fascinating.
So noob question - I got a 3D printer relatively recently and have printed a few things with it by downloading files from various websites.
How do you go about making or getting files for your specific custom jobs like these please?
I used FreeCAD to create my objects. It has quite a steep learning curve but it works for me.
I heard good things about TinkerCAD which should be easier to use for some quick ideas.
