Probably a cheap 3D printer
I'm actually blown away by how good of a 3D Printer you can get for ~$200 now. Huge improvement from just a few years ago.
I got an ender 3 pro for about $100 a couple years ago
I started off on an Ender 3 V2 a few years back. The AnkerMake M5C and Bambu A1 Mini are both down to $199 and can't believe how much faster / more reliable they are for the price.
this entirely. It's awesome and frustrating haha. My Neptune 3 from 2022, that I've poured hundreds of dollars and hours into, is completely outclassed by an out-of-the-box printer of the same or lower price today.
I'm really happy that it's getting so approachable now, I hope that I can get my grandfather his own printer during his time. I love that you don't need to be an engineer anymore to get the things to work.
I wish my grandad had made it long enough to have had a 3D printer, he would have absolutely loved it (he died in his 90's, so he did alright).
