    @foofiepie @wjrii Shapeways was my go-to for awhile, and they have an amazing variety of materials they can do. But for your basic PLA/PETG pieces, it doesn’t take very many orders to make buying your own printer cost-effective.

      That’s what I saw years ago when I looked for US options. So instead, I just have two very cheap printers. My hobbies don’t make any money whether I’m efficient or not, so I’m more willing to trade time for cash investment.
