For me its the old fans and vacuum cleaners. Over 40/years old each and still going strong. Clear labeling inside and have been fixed up multiple times.

My 3d printer is half 3d printed and a fourth recycled garbage. I've laid hands on every single part in her and hopefully soon I'll replace the box as a whole with a vintage tv cabinet and finally put a 30cm heated bed in her. The only thing I can't replace is the thermistor because I don't know how to program for a modem one.
