Bit like marriage really!Right tool for the right job situation factoring in current skills and tools/materials availability.
Like all new tech, 3D printing was over-hyped, and then fell short. But everyone remembers the hype. There's this famous hype cycle chart that describes the typical tech lifecycle where each application of 3D printing will sit at different points on that line e.g 1-off gear-shift repair, rapid prototyping, low volume production and parts that can only be made by printing etc.

Who?It's just a bit of fun to weigh the pumpkin.
The pumpkin was purchased from a charity pumpkin patch planted and tended by folk with learning disabilities. Proceeds get put with the pub quiz money and will go to the Poppy Appeal.
SWMBO thought my idea of a wicker basket with a photo of Harris/Saville/Gadd staring up was in bad taste.
Who?
The charity the pumpkin came from? It was Spadework at Offham:

Tonight then we raised £111.00 ish for the Poppy Appeal. The guillotine cum stocks scales did their thing admirably.
As an aside, tonight my daughter made me pretty:
