  You could try your local library, if they still allow those in Texas.

  Slant3d.com I’ve not used them, but I follow the founders YouTube channel where he has some good 3d printing tips

  Have you tried to see if there’s a local maker space that let’s you use their 3d printers?

  I run a small 3D print business that mostly does B2B, but I handle the occasional B2C. I charge $15 + 10¢/min for single color basic filaments (PLA/PETG/ASA) for B2C. I’m in Europe though but it could give you a price range idea.

    A lot of libraries also have maker spaces now as well -though I don’t know if Texas has libraries

      Luckily I live in an urban, relatively liberal (compared to the rest of the state) area.

        I live in San Antonio. If that or Austin are where you’re from, many libraries around here have 3D printing available. I’d offer to let you use mine, but I also don’t want to invade your privacy online.

        Assuming Austin, I found like 5 with a quick search. Assuming San Antonio, I found 3. Not sure if Houston or DFW are blue.

        There are also services like pcbway or jlccnc that will print your model and ship it to you
