The 3D printer spat out a series of disconnected doll limbs, half a ruler, and an exquisite series of 8 ornate wedge corners. He groaned and buried his head in his hands. An apple. It should have printed a nice, simple apple, something a student could hand-paint and take tot heir teacher. The darn thing had broken, and while you could get a 3D printer to make another 3D printer, it was a time-consuming job and one that he'd somehow never gotten around to. After all, he'd only opened his kiosk a week ago, and it had been run-run-run ever since. When he didn't have a client printing job, he was designing furbelows to add to his kiosk, a fancy sign, some paint palettes that would allow him do a proper colorful job of it. He couldn't really afford the investment in a color 3D printer, not yet, and so--


Inspiration: My *actual* printer was spitting out nonsense, as it does sometimes.
Story Potential: Medium. No, wait, high.
Notes: Nice setting detail, in the type not fully explored yet, but would need more to be a story. But the setting alone might carry a lot. Hrm.
