I think this is really becoming mainstream. I've been ~~punishing myself~~ printing for two years now and aware of it for about 10 years and have seen quite the shift toward mainstream appeal especially with the new crop of printers coming out like the P1P/X1C that are supposed to remove a lot of the frustrating hassle and electronics/CNC knowledge that is/was required. These things were being made out of wood just a little over a decade ago! Now you can get a fully enclosed MMU CoreXY machine for the price of a smartphone. I really hope this extends to CNC and laser cutters soon.
