My wife bought me my makerbot last year for my birthday and I know someone else whose fiance bought him on too. I’m sensing a trend here – 3D printer operators fall in love with awesome people.
All very “causation or correlation.” Are 3D printers a sign of a healthy marriage? Or, instead, do they actually have a health-generating effect on a marriage? 1
- Also, can you be a “3D printer operator” without a 3D printer? I suspect you can. See, I have a regular 2D printer and I live in 3D, as an operator of said printer I am quite literally a “3D printer operator.” [↩]
Well I may have to modify my theory because my wife does call herself a “makerbot widow” since I spend so much time with it. Then again, a healthy dose of alone time does make for a healthy marriage too. :)
Even though I don’t have a job, my wife wants me out of the house. So I had to ask Bre if I could build my MakerBot at the BotCave. MakerBots can save marriages, too.
