    Me dropping $1350 on an impulse purchase of a 3D printer was probably “irresponsible” when I got my first engineering job paycheck.

    That said, I’ve had a bunch of hours of fun with it, and am now starting to design possibly marketable items with it that I could make income with later, so it hopefully won’t be too stupid. Could be worse, I could spend $1300 on alcohol a year and have nothing for it but liver damage.

      Tools that are well loved like that are always worth it imo. Anything to simulate the creative side of the brain.
