I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn’t work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.
Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!
It went from stupid purchase to something I’d gladly replace if it broke.
The job I recently started has three 3D printers that I’ve started tinkering with. They’re very handy, I started trying to use one of the modeling softwares we also use (Solidworks). I haven’t designed much, but I have finally designed something that would be for me personally; I got a figure of Cloud Strife from Final Fantasy 7 recently and the pegs on his stand are too small, so he doesn’t stand on there securely. I’ve yet to print it out to make sure my new measurements work, but the fact that I can just whip something on the computer and the printer makes it into reality is still something that makes me very excited.
I’ve bought my own printer, but I’m still waiting on Prusa to ship it out.
