Almost the only 3D printed items I see for sale are fantasy figures, very rarely something useful. The practical items are still wood or ceramic, fabric or leather. I haven't seen anything from a home machine shop.

There are a lot more people than you think making stuff in their home
shop as a real going concern.  I am not a unicorn.

I'm one of them, of course, and I look for others. My basement-made stuff was industrial, military and NASA and now alternate energy, not for consumers which is the bulk of what appears at faires and flea markets. I suppose online is a better place for products one would search for specifically instead of strolling around looking to stumble onto hidden treasure among mainly unwanted junk.

I also attend ham radio and general surplus electronics flea markets and don't see much new "hand-crafted" stuff there either though some of the older ham radio equipment was home made, often very well.
There are several rat rods around here with extensive if not always professionally skilled modifications.
