Hi and im a young adult who is yet to get a job and would rather do something like a sidehustle. ive been wanting a 3d printer or a laptop for a bit now but both are really expensive nowadys how do you all afford them. like i want to print a bunch of board games things, dnd things, and figures but i cant afford a 3d printer i cant even addord a candybar without involving a family member and i would feel bad if i asked a family member to but one for me and i dont even think they hav ethe money too.

is there something i can do to save up for a 3d printer or something like that?

is this by chance the wrong place to ask this?

    Comgrow has Amazon returns printers for $69. There are no returns and may be missing a part or two (mine was missing belts and the bed), but if you plan to tinker anyway, the parts are not terribly expensive.

    That said, it definitely requires money. You’ll still need filament, at the least. You’re not going to get into 3d printing for free. Try to get a part-time job. Since it’s the summer, ask neighbors to mow their yards for money.
