work had a 3 printer for whomever wanted to play with it so I printed a screw because my license plate was missing one and its been rock solid for over 7 years now. other than that, they are really good for collecting dust because no one has real hobbies that require custom parts.

I would print a worm drive for a timed chicken feeder if I had a 3d printer but I don't so I'll do something else instead.

if you know cad 3d printing kicks rear end. I've saved myself probably a few thousand between printing replacement parts + woodworking poo poo. it's an insanely good tool for certain hobbies but it's not a hobby in itself and if you don't have a very clear use for it you're gonna print a baby yoda and that'll be that. a buddy of mine just spent 800 bucks on a prusa and thinks he's going to make his money back selling phone holders at the farmer's market. feel kind of bad about it because he saw my (cheapo) printer and I explained what I did with it and somehow that translated into "its a money printer". nice guy but fuckin come on now.

Weka posted:What parts do you print? non woodworking related its mostly odds and ends for stuff that broke. most recently I made a hose brace for my vacuum because I snapped off the locking pin inside the adapter. woodworking wise I make a lot of jigs for small parts batching, but recently I've been on an organizing tear so I'm making brackets and mounts for tools that can go on the wall. I might adapt one of those open source organizer systems and build myself some serious tool drawers this summer. I've printed a bunch of pretty useful stuff from cults/thingiverse/etc that have saved me some money like a set of corner radius templates for my router, dovetail markers, small parts holders, hose adapters for dust collection, tons of hinges and handles, ratchet strap corner clamps, etc. basically anything that can be made of plastic and doesn't have to be especially precise. software wise I've been using onshape which is fully free as long as you don't need private files, and if you know your way around that and have an okay calipers you can design and smash out a thing pretty quickly, though I'm not an engineer so it was slow going at first. I'd have to print a ton of revisions because I'd forget some dimension and a part wouldn't fit properly, but thankfully that's something that improves with practice and patience

I used to be addicted to plastic crack minis then I got a 3d printer last year for 200 quid and printed about 600 quids worth with the first 20 quid bottle of resin. I figured out even with my small build plate I could print out £200 of space elves per plate for like £6. Needless to say my home is now full of resin figures. I always liked kitbashing (putting diff models together to make new models) and that's really easy in 3d so even with my very rudimentary skills I could make some pretty cool custom models. Then I decided to learn blender finally and now I'm making my own minis Check out these bug soldiers     I've printed out a squad of 10 and a hero but haven't painted them yet.

Xaris posted:what's the best bang-for-the-buck low-mid-level prosumer 3d printer I'm not really into 3d printing as a hobby in itself so I don't know about a lot of the hardware, but I have an ender 3v2 and recommend it because it's still pretty cheap comparatively at $200, everyone has one so your questions have already been asked, and you have to build a pretty good portion of it yourself which is very useful when diagnosing and fixing problems. they're all just machines that poo poo out hot plastic though so really you're mostly just paying for QA and whatever board they stick on there so you'll probably be able to use any alibaba printer with decent reviews (there are millions). if you're going that route I'd get one with an enclosure

AnimeIsTrash posted:we should have more threads about bourgeoisie hobbies 3d printing costs less than most hobbies An entry level fdm printer is a hundred dollars plus twenty bucks for a kilo of filament. Cura is free software. An entry level resin printer is a hundred and fifty dollars plus twenty five for a kilo of photoresin. Chitubox is free software. It costs more to build a budget deck for magic the gathering. It costs more to buy a Nintendo switch. A decent tv is more expensive. Mirthless has issued a correction as of 16:58 on Apr 7, 2023 |

It seems weird to call 3d printing a hobby in and of itself, unless I'm missing something. I've got a buddy who has one and uses it to print out a lot of miniatures that may or may not one day be useful for TTRPG games. He likes painting them and displaying the best ones, but I would call this a miniatures hobby, not a 3d printing hobby. Someone up thread talked about using it to make stuff for a woodworking hobby and that makes sense as well. Unless you're creating your own art pieces out of resin, I don't even know what a 3d printing hobby would look like. Makes about as much dense to me as saying you've got a hammer or a screwdriver hobby.

At this point the technology is still too fiddly for amateurs TTRPG guy who does not like adjusting recipes and print speeds won't find it worthwhile

I don't know they're kind of like car guys who like fiddling with their cars but not for track days or whatever

Like, 3D printing a lifesize copy of Michelangelo's David or the snowmen from Calvin and Hobbes or whatever. Way too spendy for my blood, but I can see how people with some engineering knowledge and expertise could find that enjoyable independent of what was being created.
