Well, I make lots of things, you can see some of them on my site: http://nowsci.com/
While many prototypes and prints (I’d say 90%) will be done on the V0, there are some larger ones I’m trying out soon.
One will be a slim 19" custom server rack for mini PCs, built out of 2020 alluminum and large 3D printed trays I’m designing. Others will be monitor alignment brackets, parts for campervans, mass printing custom Pegboard mounts, redesigning my solder fume extractor as one piece, etc.
I’ve also used 3D printing for furniture making, but only for mounts to join metal to wood. I may attempt some other methods for frame stays now.
I was just wondering because at that size prints take so long that other means of low-quantity production often make more sense. But for making prototypes in business or business-like usage, it totally makes sense.
If by business you mean I spend way too much time doing things to learn, write up How-Tos, or even just to see it if I can when I could be monetizing that time, thennnn yeeeessssss?
But no, this is all extreme hobby. I should probably start a YouTube channel haha
Sorry, didn’t want to offend you! It just sounded really professional what you are doing.
There’s quite a few channels in the style of “I got a toolshed and I make crazy things because I can” (Stuff made here is probably the best one). I really do like them!

Sounds interesting! So business-like usage?

Gives me envious daydreams ;)
Oh no worries at all. And I watch many of them as well. Great to see the types of things I’ve enjoyed for years hit more mainstream.
