If this is a bad or irrelevant post, say Nay and I will trash it in a month or so.

I been window-web shopping recently and looking various hardware and extension upgrades for my old-gen 2010 laptop, though Dell company can't make anymore of the parts I need and have to custom-adapt with new-gen hardware for my soon dying laptop, a thought came to mind;

"Should I get 3d printer parts and custom my own electronics for my part-time paying-hobby?"

As it would be awesome and gold-shit expensive to support a 3d printer on long-term basis, the hardware market for old-gen parts are getting scary limited. Naturally I don't want to commit to the 3d-printing community yet, being a grey-collar worker is already having me focus on rent and food. If I sit on it for 10 or 15 years, maybe 3d printers will be more legal-stable and cost-effective for the majority.

But now to the important question for you lot:

"Should SF Debris join the 3d printing club and build his own electronics in his spare time?"
