3D Printing

I recently designed and 3D printed a CMM fixture for an oddly shaped part. (It turned out amazing)
I was just wondering if anyone else uses a 3D printer for work or pleasure and what applications have you found your 3D printer the most useful in a manufacturing environment?

We have 5 or more marked forged 3D printers. Prints come out very well. I use them for part fixtures and making adapter plates for toggle clamps and stuff.

yeah, I can't complain, company owner sought these out himself. We have 1 that can reinforces prints with either continuous or chopped carbon fiber. He says print whatever makes our jobs easier. Got an idea to make it better, adjust your model and print it again. Once you are pleased with the final result, print a backup.
