With only two entries, @rastacalavera@lemmy.world and @Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de’s family member, I used the random generator suggestion and added the results as a pic.

Edit to add: If someone local wants to arrange to meet somewhere we can do that. I’ll check back on this tomorrow around 12PM Central US and if there’s a lot of interest I’ll figure out a lottery system.

Hi all,

I have a Ender-3 V2 3D printer that I’m trying to give away. It’s hardly been used, about half the little spool of filament that came with it has been used.

I’m looking for ideas because our local library has no interest and the local makers club I tried seems defunct.

I’m in the US, Twin Cities metro of Minnesota specifically and I’d rather give it away than try to sell it. I don’t want to go through the hassle, especially potentially shipping.

I will probably give it to a thrift store if I do t come up with a better idea but I’d rather give it away for free than to someone else to sell.

    Wow, when I got into 3d printing, I never thought we’d get to a place where people were just trying to give them away LOL!

    Good on you trying to find a new home for it, hope someone puts it to good use!

    If other things don’t pan out, you could see if the Mankato Maker Space wants it. I’m not really involved, but I’d make the drive for them if they do.

      Thanks, I’ll keep them in mind! I’d maybe take it there myself. I went to college in Mankato and have been meaning to take a weekend drive back there.

    I may have a highschool family member out there interested (or a friend of theirs)

    Edit: yes they are interested, I sent a link over to them
