Do you or have you ever used a 3D printer?

I've used them several times before. Thinking of asking for one for Christmas. I use TinkerCAD to make a lot of my projects, but I learned AutoCAD as well, but I need to learn SolidWorks and Sculptris if I want to learn how to truly make things :D

  • No. I'm a Millenial and do not need any physical objects.

    Shame--3D printers are most popular with our generation ;) 

    Also Millennials are generally the most material generation ever. So materialistic that it's one of the cringiest things ever.

  • They seem to only like iPhones and any other devices that let them live a digital-only life.

    Every generation is more materialistic than the last and it makes me want to puke.

    I haven't, I'm not even sure what motive I'd like to print in 3D. But I know it's quite amazing and helpful in some circumstances. Hmm.

    Trust me--once it becomes a reality that you're able to access one of these, you start to think about a million things you'd want to print. Especially if you know how to make things. Could easily fix things around your house and whatnot :D

    Nope, but then again, I don't think I could be trusted with one; I'd conjure up all kinds of things that would only get me into trouble.

    I'm getting one to 3D print semi-naughty things.
    Anyway what's with the gorgeous black girl?
