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?

  • Man, you just gave me a great idea for an aluminum extruded part that we struggle measuring!

    Mine is low end as well. Ender 3 V2 (~$250 printer)
    I think in the right hands any 3D printer can be powerful


    That printer is a really nice printer actually, I've had success making all sorts of fixturing and clamps/collets for custom parts. I've upgraded mine quite a bit at this point and really enjoy it.
