minus-square@aCosmicWave@lemm.eeOPlinkfedilink14•1 year agoDoes it still count as “imadeit” if I made it using a hodge podge of other people’s parts? Haha, I ordered the custom shell from eBay ☺️ but it feels very high quality (not 3D printed)
minus-square@TheTetrapod@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink21•1 year agoAs a 3d printer enthusiast, I object to you implying that 3d printed parts aren’t high quality, while acknowledging that you’re very correct.
minus-squarerecursive_recursion [they/them]linkfedilinkEnglish3•1 year agoagreed, sometimes it makes sense to accept that trying to do everything isn’t worth it
