Functional is its own aesthetic
3D printing is one of the most gratifying hobbies, since you can envision an object and hold it after just a few hours of CAD and printing. However, after printing my fair share of chainmail armor, articulating dragons in rainbow filament, and little business card holders, I've concluded that functional prints give me the greatest joy. Items that solve a problem I acknowledge, no matter how trivial, with the simplest of engineering.
