   Do try to keep up.  The question was "what do people make at home?"   
   The question was not "What are people 3D-Printing at home?"   
      
   That being said, why not?  Where do you get the silly idea that   
   3D-printing only works for plastics?  People are 3D-printing rocket   
   combustion chambers and you think 'hardened steel' is a problem?
