Comment on [Rant] It's frustrating when models are ONLY priced with vendors in mind
WhatTheDuck@piefed.social 1 week agoThank you for the perspective of being a designer, and for all the work shared with the community.
I’m definitely thankful for Makerworld’s incentives, and it shows with their abundance of great models.

Yeah the incentives are very good on makerworld.
I actually got my printer (A1 and ams) from points I earned from one model of mine that’ was popular (jumping spider).
100% paid for with points.
I was able to buy a A1 mini and ams lite a year later for my nieces and nephews. Though I think I’ll be taking it back cause they never use it.
But still. Was pretty cool I could buy all that with points from my free models.
Some people say I should sell them but on cults3d you can see how much people sell their models for and how many were sold.
I earn more making them free. It’s just the money is Bambu gift cards. I believe you can exchange points for actual money now but it’s like 30 cents on the Bambu dollar. So, I’ll just buy filament with it.
