It's not like I make or save a lot of money from it, but as a hobby it's been amazingly fun. Getting into basic 3D modeling has been really cool too, nothing quite hits like making something entirely unique and designed for a specific purpose, then watching your printer just crank it out in a day or two and your imagined thing is all the sudden real.
I'm sure other hobbies can do that too, but for me it was a really awesome feeling :)
