When I was thinking about getting a 3D printer I asked a few friends what they used theirs for. Vague answers. When I asked what they last printed they almost all seemed to be printing a new part for their printer... I swore I wouldn't do that. I didn't keep the vow, but didn't break it quite as thoroughly as I expected - though I did do several other upgrades to it in addition (commercial parts). I use it quite a bit; it can be infuriating when it's being temperamental, but enormously satisfying when something I designed from scratch works out well. I've had quite a few requests from my wife for miscellaneous bits and pieces too, so everyone's happy.
