Psh! Unless you're constantly buying the newest machine every year, 3d printing isn't that expensive of a hobby. Not compared to shit like golfing or being a car guy or ATV/snowmobiling

it is when you factor in the amount of time you use it, just to let it collect dust afterwards.

Well, why aren't you using it?

If you're not using it, it's not a hobby. Buying shit you don't use is just consumerism.

Arghs, wrong community, sorry. Thought we where in an ADHD related topic, where buying new (and expensive) things just to loose interest shortly after is pretty common. This comic was posted there already multiple times.

It's comments like these that make me realize that maybe I have ADHD.. and then I stick my head on the sand and ignore it again..

3D-printing Warhammer figurines ? (No, that sounds like heresy)

i don't find it to be that expensive tbh.

That depends on what you're printing!
