Silencers, and silencer baffles, along with grips, are particularly handy as you can easily customise to suit your own requirements. Also all manner of tool racks/holders/inserts for lathe tools, socket sets, spanners, changegears etc.

I've also found 3D part designs on the interweb for various hard-to-find household item repairs, e.g. toolbox latch, bike shed bracket, curtain rail runner inserts, and a remote control battery cover. It's one of those "what would I have done without it" type purchases once you get used to having it available, like microwaves, or lathes.
Very interesting, thanks Jon, it appears they are very versitile !
