I remember when mp3s were first “a thing” and early adopters hit bulletin boards and sites like Napster and amassed massive free/cheap music collections.
Most people either hadn’t heard of it or were not tech-savvy enough to make use of it. Many people dismissed it as a “nerd fad”.
Fast forward nearly thirty years and now streaming mp3s on demand is the main method for accessing music.
I’d be very surprised us GW aren’t offering a monthly subscription based download for stls by the end of the 2020s.
Almost everyone I’ve heard saying there’s no future to 3d printing minis doesn’t actually own one and have little or no real life experience of printing their own minis (sharing only other non interested user reports of problems with storing resin, space used etc).
I’d have thought that if there’s one group of people willing to put up with a bit of mess, using glue and similar chemicals, and creating something awesome out of raw materials, it’d be miniature tabletop enthusiasts!
Is there anyone out there *who has (or has owned) a 3d printer* who believes it isn’t where the industry is heading?
