I turned my hobby into a job, and I couldn’t be happier. I go to my hobby every morning, and my customers are happy I’m doing it; So happy - in fact - that they give me money to do it.
My first machine was a Sells Mendel back in 2010. Literally didn’t have a machine; but had a friend with one he couldn’t get to work. The deal was: I get it to work, and I could print my machine’s parts with it. I got it to work, and now I also get everyone else’s printers working too :)
Same. I do the fun thing and get the food-money from it. It’s -3 outside, a balmy 26c in my home office, and I really hope I can do this until I retire and do this on contract.

Sir this is the internet, we don’t do the happy
I misread this at first and thought you said “We don’t do Therapy”. XD
Some definitely try to do that here. (Armchair therapists/psychiatrists)
