Lugs have a thin wall, about 1.2mm, ideal for printing and almost too thin for machining. The stem has 3mm walls, ideal for machining, and gets pricey to print.

I am just astounded by what can be done with printed stuff. But your bars, stem and levers are sublime. Amazing work.

Wow. Those are neat. Were they machined or printed?
And the pedals above. What body did you attach the plates to?

As for the pedals, I used MKS Touring bodies. I have a wide fat foot. Quills and toe clips are very uncomfortable to me.

I don't recall that quote. It was 9 years ago. I did buy a single lug (top head tube) in 2017. It was $312. The box above, 21 parts total, was $445. The BB was the most expensive at $68. Not cheap, but I expect at least 160 hours of finishing. So it cost me $2.78/hour to have fun. Cheaper than a movie.

What tubing will you use?

Columbus XCR. Except the fork, Columbus doesn't offer a stainless option. I went with KVA.

Let the polishing begin!
Looks like one of the fork dropouts is already done...
Have you estimated the height of the pile of sandpaper you'll go through?
Looks like a different printing process from earlier test pieces. I don't see the "sedimentary" printing artifacts, these looke more "cast."
I'm still amazed at the 3D printing state of the art from when I was designing these kind of parts maybe 15 years ago. Costs have dropped significantly as well.

The Atelier has a large scrap bin for this very reason. As long as I stick to same bend, same material dimensions I'm pretty confident in my rack/decaleur designs. When I'm asked to go outside of my comfort zone, I light a few candles before horking down on tubing.

Once again, sir, you manage to astound those among us who are less creative and experimental.
