@Richard_Betel seriously, I’d love to do something like this, it’s just, as I have explained, I have no experience in 3D printing, because I haven’t had a chance to try it out yet.
I would argue with you on the point, that a very distinctive difference between “home” and “medical” or lets’s say generally “professional” use lays in the base price of the equipment (it’s got to hit ROI at some point, otherwise it is a novelty purchase, bought by some rich kid, which can not account for the majority of population, even of USA or Europe), as well as the application - even with the best resolution 3D printer, the kid from the top comment wouldn’t be able to print the ear or help a girl with her hand. So this would be a seep learning curve + access to certain knowledge + skills.
As the last point, in terms of the “privilege” - it can play two ways. What I mean is, more people have access to simple cheap plastic spareparts from China, than to a USD 2’000 printer, that will print a cheap shower curtain, that breaks once in a while.
Having said all this, I think your point on a complete customised solutions for everyday objects for people, who are thinking outside the box is completely valid and I am reevaluating my view on 3D printing right now.
There are of course the economical uses, like @Anthony_Truss has mentioned, which make perfect sense too. And the mattes of convienience, like in @Jonathan_Maize case.
The question of course is how mainstream is it? It will be mainstream for sure, but for now it seems a bit limited. Having said all this, I do hope in couple of years we all will have 3D printers at home and we all will know what to actually do with them.
