A very rewarding part of getting into 3D printing is that after the initial purchase, I started repairing things left and right like a standing mixer for my grandma or a thread adapter for my partner. I didn't picture just how many things could be saved and how many purchases would be avoided. I'm always glad to be able to print some niche thing for under a euro worth of material that would otherwise cost 30€ or so and only be available on Amazon. I do realize the irony in having to make a non-insignificant purchase to acquire such a device, but it did open up a whole new world of making things on my own.
