I used to work in graphic design, so I know this pain (as do friends of mine who are photographers, artists and so on). People just don't see the value when the skill or knowledge is hidden. No one questions the bill for the guy who digs a hole in your yard to fix a pipe (hours x rate), but they can't wrap their head around the hours taken to design their poster, logo, or business card. And no, there is no 'magic' button on my keyboard...

This came with my 3d printer.
