I started researching 3D printing a decade ago... and finally jumped into the market when the printers became reliable & affordable. Having the ability to make your own parts is truly a game-changer. Manufacturing via 3D printers is not exactly the ideal way to create tangible objects, but the ability to rapidly iterate & improve designs is truly helpful. If mass-production is necessary, a number of 3D prints will help reduce the risk of any number of failed production runs.
I've spent a fair amount of time designing parts in support of my Retro Modules project.
More to come...
