TLDR: Refreshingly honest video from a maker who went full-time on a 3D printing side hustle, earning $20,000/year, but is now giving it up due to burnout and lack of scalability. He shares his journey from failed Etsy businesses to finding success with 3D printing, but ultimately realizing that the profit margin wasn't enough to justify the time and effort required. A must-watch for hobby startups considering the realities of running a business.
