    Literally why I got mine. If you’re losing motivation use 3d builder. Use blenders clay tug and pull function to make something hideous.

      I can recommend MatterControl instead of blender.

      Blender has too many functions you don’t need, so it has a steep learning curve.

      Mattercontrol is literally drag and dropping shapes and cutting them out of each other. You can use prexisting stl files to do so.

      Same. Started printing a few weeks ago (well, I initially did 13 years ago, but that’s another story), and I’m currently working down a long list of issues that I solve with a printer.

      After a while I can slowly refocus my printing towards a pet project that has been in the planning stage for 20 years.
