I print a lot of engineering parts for myself, sculptures / funny things for friends, replacement bits and bobs around the house for my wife.
I do a lot of 3D design myself, but that;s for the replacement parts and engineering parts - I'm no good (at all) at intricate artwork stuff.
I prefer parametric design of something with a purpose so I know where I'm going, I also find that a lot easier.

Mostly stuff other people have made. Props, model making / railway stuff etc. At the moment I have been doing some prototype work for a secret design project. Sometimes I take already existing non 3d printable files and hack them up to become printable.
Also do I consider myself a 3d designer? Well I'm getting paid to do it freelance and at my full time day job, even if my freelance stuff is much more basic and my professional job is designing packaging foam in 3d, so nowhere near the beautiful organic or mechanical designs some people can do.
