3d printing adventures volume 2. Part 1: door stop. Random model I downloaded was too big for my printer, so I shrank it without measuring. Shrank too much, so had to design and print a little pad to glue on. Well it works.

You’re actually using a 3D printer in the way that all the people who were making the most utopian predictions about home 3D printing anticipated! Feel like I haven’t seen very many people really try to do that, though I haven’t been looking.

So many home users seem to get lost in the spectacle of printing itself & making gimmicky objects (ex. like Star Wars characters or whatever) since they can. They might occasionally do functional prints, but those prints get less attention maybe in part due to online algorithms.
