TheWildHustle thinks 3d printing serves the plate licking pleb well.
  • He envisions a world where plebs design and print household items and home defense gear out of recycled bottles. Turning fiat consumerism waste into "hand crafted" products that have the best warranty money can buy (if it breaks, print it again).
  • Hustle dreams of 3d printed bikes, and shoes, vinyl records and record players, firearms and silverware.
Freaks would be able to upload and share 3D printing files and the territory would be chalk full of tutorials guides and cool projects.

A helpful area where people can ask questions would be great.
Much like Bitcoin there is a learning curve with 3D printing:
  • What is the difference between filament types?
  • What all software does one need?
  • How do I keep my print from shifting on the bed?
  • Should it really take 8 hours to print something?
Stacker News has been a great repository of helpful post and Q&As for Bitcoin. Stacker News could also be this for 3D printing.

Thanks for the feedback.

100% of territories are broke (waste of money -- a donation to k00b)
Until ~tech or ~DIY become profitable, what chance does a niche within those topics have? Just post about 3d printing to these territories.
Help them stop losing money first.

Inferior products and micro plastics swimming in your food.
This is not what 3d printing is for.
The benefits of 3d printing are for making unique models that can ONLY be manufactured using additive manufacturing.
Or for making low-volume, highly customized models that don't make sense to mass produce.
Mass production is always the goal. 3d printed prototypes can help a product find a market before spending the money to manufacture in bulk.

I don't consider spending money on my hobbies to be a waste of money.
I'm not really interested in helping other territories become profitable.

The statement above is valid, Hustle probably just loves the idea, and likes playing with toys. Much appreciated Null.

maybe focus on growing DIY instead of splitting it up
or providing 3D printing services for sats and give ppl ideas on what they can print
like coordinate ppl with 3D printers, with ppl who want 3D parts without printers
