eh, I feel like a lot of people are interested in one just to print a bunch of shit that they won’t use
I have three. my original one (ender 3), and two new bambu printers (a1 and a1 mini)
obviously I never use the ender anymore. I mostly just use the a1 mini now, because it’s quieter than the a1 and the majority of the prince I do fit on its smaller bed just fine
I use it for functional stuff. When it’s printing, it’s very convenient. It’s not printing all the time.
here’s a list of stuff I semi recently printed:
-
garbage can lid knob
-
drill template
-
shower hook
-
bracket to hold my computer external power brick on my monitor mount arm
-
Kindle stand (although the model I found online sucks and I’m going to just make a better one. or I’ll just make one out of wood)
-
spacer to fix my car fob button
-
bracket to raise the rear leg of the TV stand up to tilt the TV forward
-
sheath for a very sharp paint scraper
-
sheathes for very sharp chisels
-
sheath for pointy awl
-
custom mounts for my bike peripherals (camera, computer)
-
bracket to hold my Eero blob on a shelf edge
Oh yeah I also printed a centering three jaw chuck that I found online, which actually makes a great fidget toy. I printed that as a test for trying to print a chuck so I could actually turn something on my wood lathe. I ended up going with a four jaw chuck and it actually worked pretty damn well.











nah that’s just the horror font
or something idk
