Hey everyone,

As some of you know, I’ve spent the last four years managing a local vape shop, pouring a lot of my time, loyalty, and energy into making it successful. Recently, however, I was let go unexpectedly. The separation stemmed from some sudden shifts in the company's direction and internal dynamics that left me without a job essentially overnight. It was an incredibly tough pill to swallow, and I am more than happy to talk privately with anyone who wants to know the full story—but right now, I need to focus all of my energy on my family and the future.

And that future is my 3D printing business: Always Be 3D.

Over the last 6 years, this has grown from a hobby into a true passion and a rapidly growing business. My first two years, I only made a couple hundred dollars as I learned how to run a business. But in my third year, I hit a little over $10,000 in revenue! I reinvested every single penny back into the business to buy better equipment, materials, and models. My goal for this year is to double that and hit $20,000. I know I have the drive and the skills to make it happen, but I am running into one massive roadblock: space.

With the sudden loss of my primary income and a "home base", I am operating on a tight budget, and my current setup is completely bursting at the seams. To keep Always Be 3D thriving, I desperately need a dedicated workspace.

I am trying to raise some money to build a dedicated home office shed right in my backyard. This will give me the proper environment to run my printers, manage my inventory safely, and officially transition into running Always Be 3D full-time.

Any support—whether it's a donation to help me buy the shed materials or simply sharing this page—means the absolute world to me right now. Thank you to all my friends and family for having my back and helping me turn a tough break into a massive opportunity.
