Is there a photo?

Ditto, I’ve always got one with me anyway, now it’s for fun as well as work

It’s not really smooth up close haha just standard sorta 0.2mm layer height, sanded down a little, then I spray painted them gold which hid some of the rough spots

And yeah I’m a big believer in repairable tech, 3d printers are huge in terms of being able to replace the kind of custom shaped plastic parts that the manufacturer doesn’t sell spares of and the appliance is completely unusable without (as I’m sure is the intention 🙄 planned obsolescence is truly one of the worst things we’ve ever come up with)

I mostly use mine for functional stuff, odd shaped brackets, pipe adaptors, electronics enclosures, so not very photogenic, but my two favourite things were a replacement door latch for the microwave, saved the cost of buying a new one, and a very nerdy bit of wall art 🖖

Could it be something to do with clothing, thinking like a hoop skirt? Or part of a tent structure maybe
