  I’ve been on this train for a while that governmental organizations like the Bureau of Consumer Protections needs to have a site where all manuals, blue-prints, and technical specs need to be required to sell consumer products. I want to be able to 3d print or easily provide a machining service with the specs for a part ESPECIALLY when the original manufactures discontinue any type of support.

  Same goes for all software or digital services that someone has purchased but the company folds or discontinues. I should be able to run my own servers or basic services off my own setup when that company no longer provides what I paid for.

    I bet there would be a carve out for anything particularly unsafe, like high voltage equipment or whatever.

    Cue: the new Braun toothbrush, now with a 450v battery system for ultimate cleaning power.

  Cool idea, but also basically the worst shape to use a 3D printer for. Those things will crumble as soon as they experience any sort of real world load in a slightly wrong direction.

    There’s not much reason for a razor guide to experience meaningful load.

      Pretty sure these would break just from sliding it on and off, getting it caught on beard hair or skin or dropping it from a like 30cm.

    What kind of “real world load” are you putting on your trimmer? Mine barely ever gets caught in hair, and when it does, the hair gets cut before it can apply any meaningful amount of force to the trimmer guard.

  That’s quite nice, I’d say
