May your filament be strong and plentiful and may all your beds be level.
I use my 3d printer sparingly. I don’t like printing useless stuff, so I design parts when needed if I can’t find them somewhere else.
I use my printer when I need it. Once I learned CAD, the need to print toys and trinkets basically evaporated. (I did just print a tiny guitar for my daughter for Christmas as a placeholder for a trip to the guitar store after the holidays were over.)
The printer is now an extremely useful tool. The drawback is that I don’t use as much filament and have had a few spools degrade on me. It’s no biggie, but it’s a time suck to dry it and get it usable again.
Do what I do, when you have filament, extrAs, supports. Leave them in a 5 gallon bucket until 2/3 full. Then go out to the garage with your old toaster oven and make filament bricks. It takes no time at all to make…please help me I have filament bricks 9x12x1" everywhere. Please normalize this lol
Same but when I do use it, wow is it handy to have around. It’s more than paid for itself with all the stuff I’ve been able to fix with it or make outright.
I am the same way but I get hell from the wife for purchasing something that isn’t being used. So now I have a table full of articulated dragons, and a wife asking why I have so many…

I recently made a violin that sounds pretty decent but I don’t know how to play it yet
The main body was what I was worried about the most but it turned out pretty easy it just took a long time
Check out the “modular fiddle” everything fits fine on a cr6 se
Don’t ask me if my bed is level
Ohhh yeah that’s a good one
People with self-leveling 3D printers:
signature look of superiority
People with high-end FDM 3D printer: You guys bed-level?
I hope your corner warps
People with enclosed printers:
Signature look of superiority
I hope you get a knot in your filament
People who own a 3D printer but never print.
Signature look of superiority
This just turned into “how to solve 3d printing problems” lmao
