I think there is plenty of room for a home print business.
YouTuber 3dpprofessor sent models he printed himself to Slandt3d to see if he could recommend them for his 3D print game when people are short of time to print their own parts. Skant3D knew it was him ordering and still sent garbage prints back.
So quality prints is something no one is doing except at ridiculous costs of the big name professional companies that charge hundreds per tiny print.
At the other end of simple prints I went to look for Multiboard panels because it's taking me too long to make a wall on my own. Etsy users are charging $10 per small panel.
