    The sewing machine. Like we got 3d printers than can give me whatever I want in 20 hrs but I still got to fight with a sewing machine to stitch an outfit. Like why no polyester clothes printer?

      For one, polyester fabric and clothes are just terrible

      Two, technically you can 3d print a chainmail shirt, but it’d suck to wear normally

      We have knitting machines, and automated looms (weaving machines,) we even have sergers for fancy sewing. Its just plain easier to make the finished product as a custom job since humans aren’t uniform in size, and it’s way easier to weave a rectangular piece of cloth than any other shape.
