re: 3D printing is boring and pointless. Am I missing something?

3D printed concrete house is definitely not a good application right now, many of those structures are showing cracks and other issues typical of any early adopter technology.

Someone like Darth, who makes models, might enjoy it, but I don't see the usefulness of spending money on a printer and filament.

I've seen them used in a few of the many car rebuild/customizing shows they have on TV.
They use them to make parts for cars that have little to no aftermarket available, or if there are parts, they are higher that a giraffe's arse to buy or sometimes to make custom designed parts.
I have no use for one, but I can see where they are a useful tool to have.

Thought back on this thread today. So first off, I broke my vacuum adapter for my pool, a few measurements and 2 hours later I have a new one.
My wife is a typical woman and a tumbler addict, we have way too many yeti/stanley/hydro jug/owala cups. Currently printing some storage for those to take up some dead wall space instead of an entire cabinet.

I’ve seen it used to make wonderful Mardi Gras medallions for beads.
If it can help us not have to pay the Chinese for more beads and throws then I’m all for it.
