I bought my husband a 3D printer for fun. It's changed how we fix things around the house and saved us $1,400 just this year.

I bought my husband a 3D printer for his 50th birthday. It was $700, but you don't turn half a century every day, so I splurged. I figured 3D printing would make a great hobby, and that's all it was at first.
