I Made This

Did you make something? Do you want the fleeting rush of endorphins that come with affirmation from strangers? Do you think what you made is neat? Share it here!

Paintings, movies, music, drawings, models, gardens, houses, snowmen, sandcastles - if you made it, you can post it.

RULES:

Some things you make are not to be shared. These include:

Do not be a jerk.

- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, classism, or bigotry of any kind.

- Don't try to sell stuff unless people ask. You can post your Etsy (or similar) if someone prompts you. No spamming self-promotion.

As a 3d printer enthusiast, I object to you implying that 3d printed parts aren't high quality, while acknowledging that you're very correct.

agreed, sometimes it makes sense to accept that trying to do everything isn't worth it

It also makes more sense in this context IMO

3D printing is really cool for when you need a small amount of a custom part

When you need to mass produce something, you might as well invest in equipment to make it faster and for cheaper
