Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

I feel you, started with a cheap 200$ ender 3…. I now have two ender 3’s, an ideaformer belt printer, a bambu p1s, and. Tronxy 400 I’m converting into a Frankenstein printer. Oh and an anycubic mono x resin printer and a laser cutter.

Yea, 6 printers and a freaking laser cutter/engraver. All because I thought it would be fun to tinker with 3D printing

Ouch... it's like looking at my future self :)
Maybe we should start a support group.

Well, there’s a 3D printing board at lemmy.world, but it’ll probably just make it worse
