A 3D-Printer, I thought I just play around with it and get bored, but you discover so many things that you can do!
The handle on the fridge broke? Print new ones. Need a Flowerpot? Just print one. The router needs a wallmount? I have one ready in a few Hours.
Also I can watch it print for hours, very fascinating and calming.
I got one to print parts for my drones thinking it would be no big deal and it turned in to a hobby in itself.
I've really been resisting getting into drones via my 3d printer. I just love the idea that I could print out parts and make my drone better and better!
I only use it for things like guards, wire/cap/cameral holders... gopro case... things like that. but the frames are all carbon fiber. There are templates to print the entire drone out off the printer but I have not done that.
You can get the electronics pretty cheap. It might be a fun project for you :)
