Made some covers for my power cords...

Got tired of finding some of my adapters under my jacks, or some other random heavy thing and bending them, made some covers, think they came out ok.

    Yeah...If you are just trying to justify a 3D printer to the wife, so you can play with it, go for it.
    LOL The wife had to convince me to buy one. I have access to commercial grade printers at work. She uses it more than me making artsy crafty stuff. She wants an SLA printer but doesn't want to deal with the chemicals.

    Yea LittleBill, put your printer away and stop having fun while educating yourself


    I think his suggestion was more for the people that don't want to buy a 3D printer and learn how to use it, but still think this is a good idea and want covers themselves.

    Printing your own sounds like a fun project for those that like that kind of thing, but for those that don't, cheap outlet converters sound like a good alternative that many people may not have thought of.


    But it's really silly to claim it's a cost savings tool.


    I am going to strongly disagree here. there have been multiple projects where I fixed something or made something that would have forced me to either throw something out, or hired a cnc shop to make a part for me. also every part I design i sell, to help recoup the cost.

    I have easily recouped most of my cost, until i bought another printer. I give it a year to recoup that as well
