I'm interested in a Bambu Lab P1S or a similarly affordable 3D printer. I'd want to print small figurines and organizers for my room with it. Is it worth it financially or is that just something for professionals?
It depends on how much you actually want to print.
The P1S isn't crazy expensive, and if you regularly need small stuff like organizers or figurines, it's definitely worth it - you'll quickly save yourself some pricey Amazon purchases.
That said, you need time to learn (finding models, slicing, print times) and material costs add up too. If you only want to tinker with stuff every few months, it's kind of overkill.
For your purposes, it's absolutely worth it - the P1S has great value for money and prints small parts reliably! What a lot of people forget: you'll also need filament (doesn't cost much, but it adds up) and some time to learn how to dial in your models properly. But here's the cool thing - after a few months of regular use, you'll have made back your investment if you'd otherwise be buying those little parts - and the creativity of designing stuff is fun too!
