3d printer
I only assembled it from prusa parts but still it was lots of fun, learned a lot about how 3d printers work.

Then it was printing trex using 3d printer and it was funny to because it took me about a month to do so just because of amount of parts and the problem with parts that were broken and needed to be fixed.

From software projects, once I build a browser plugin in 2-3 hours cause I was pissed off with those shitty popups all around. I published it on browser store, made code opensource and forgot about it.

Recently I got some survey from a german university about it and I was like wtf ?
I looked at a statistics and my plugin had about 500 daily users and I was amused because the ui is shitty as fuck and the ux is even more shitty.

I plan to update this plugin but since I am focused on a bigger personal project for almost half a year now I have no time to do it.

    @Codex404 yeah I recently bought some rc car, disassembled it and now I am in long process of making custom body for it with raspberry pi, camera and thinking about some docking station for battery replacement.

    It’s in concept phase now. Measured the parts on paper sheet and now I will start to make some model in fusion360 but the real problem is time to do all I want I need 48hour day 😂

    It come to my mind that I’ve build a price displaying application for big three part led screen on top of office building.
    Funny part was syncing and moving prices between those screens.

    I also planned to make remote connection to it and display my phone number sometimes or pick up girls by displaying their names but I don’t work there anymore 😂

    @M1sf3t its more affordable than PC gaming for quite a while. Ive got two printers of less than 600 euros and they print great.
    My gaming PC is about 1200 when I assembled it but that was about 5 years ago, so it kinda requests an upgrade now. Add some nice peripherals.
    Mouse + keyboard: 160 euro
    Racing wheel and peddals: 150 euro
    VR set: 800 euros.

    And the scale: I dont know anyone in real life with the hobby. There are two friends that want to get into it but they want to print just DnD/Warhammer minis for the minis and not the printing itself. So I will do that for them and Ill get 5 cents per mini.
