I'm in 3d printing since 2016. I bought a cheap used Conrad RF-100 for tinkering and learning 3d printing stuff. Now since 2020 I own a prusa mini and most of the time happy with it ...

Normally I do replacement parts, functional stuff or something for my workshop or daily life.

I design my stuff in FreeCAD mostly because I run Linux and there is no real alternative. Despite some ugliness, it works quite well for me.
