I’m going to have access to a 3D printer for a few days. I know two friends who’ve used them, but it’s only been for art and figurines, or professional purposes.
Are there any other cases you can think of where a custom-printed item is better than the myriad of mass-produced plastic items?
That’s sort of a perennial question but you can look on thingiverse for lots of designs, some of which might interest you.
Me, I need a replacement front cover for my ancient vacuum cleaner, for which original parts are no longer available. It’s 3d printable but would need a fairly large printer. I might try carving from wood instead. A Shapeoko would be great for that, but since I don’t mind it looking like crap, I might just try with hand tools.
