The beginning

I bought a sailboat in 2018, a Bostrom 31 launched in 1976. We named her Growler. Of course, she required repairs and improvements immediately. Some of these needed to be done in a hangar with the help of professionals. However, I decided to do some of the work myself.

Since I live in an apartment and don’t have a garage or workshop, woodworking was not an option. I thought I could use 3D printing. At the time, I mainly associated it with printing figurines and toy gadgets. I bought a Creality CR-10 and decided to dive into the deep end by starting my 3D printing adventure with making window frames approximately 70 by 26 cm in size.

Over the years, more and more 3D prints appeared, and then small electronic projects were added. Quite a lot accumulated, and motivated by friendly sailors, I decided to start sharing them.
