This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

A bunch of people print a lot of dust collectors. All stuff downloaded and printed that don’t amount to any more than toys or novelties. IMO it’s a waste and just ends up in the recycle stream - if recyclers will even process it. But people gonna do what they’re gonna do.
If you learn how to do some 3D modeling to make things you want and can use, then IMO it’s worth it. I’ve printed a ton of things, everything from repair parts for luggage, PC parts, to designing my own toolbox organizers.
My printing tends to go in waves, the printer sits idle for maybe a month or two, but then I’m printing for a week straight.
