If I could afford a 3D printer I would definitely use it a bunch for personal projects
Getting a used mid-range printer is quite affordable. Or try looking for your local maker space, so you don't have to buy your own. It's never been easier to get into 3D printing than today.
Also, it's quite easy to sell custom 3D prints. Thus it's not that hard to cover the cost of materials (or even the printer itself).
