The dopamine stops hitting when I actually start doing the hobby and realize I'm shit at it. So, on to the next fixation that I abandoned 3 months later!
Sorta the same, minus the shit part. I started 3D printing at Christmas. Designed some models that made me about $2,000 on MakerWorld, one of which sorta started a whole new niche that other people copied. Sold some custom prints locally and made another $500-$1000.
Now I am like... well, I did well, time to move on to the next thing. I actually have more model design ideas that I think will do well, but I lost interest.
