- Comment on Choosing my first printer is driving me mad. 1 week ago:
I just got my first printer too. Some dude was selling an Ender 3 v2 in a junk shop for $30. I bought it, tinkered with it for a bit, spent $100 on bits for it, and it’s going like a champ now. New, it would have cost me $450. It took me like 2 weeks and a lot of input from this community, but I’m confident with it now. I highly recommend the printer, even for a total newb. Cura, TinkerCAD, and Blender are all free, and I’m basically just having a blast. Stay away from Bambu - even new to the game, I know that much. Good luck!

Oh, absolutely lol I have my first print going now and I’m not doing anything to it that I don’t have to do… yet. It took me most of the day to figure out my firmware wasn’t functioning.
I had to replace the hot end because the tube was jammed and I couldn’t get the filament out. And I had to buy a screen because I’ll be damned if I’m plugging a random piece of hardware into my PC hahaha

Wow, thank you! It’s currently auto leveling but I get the feeling from what you wrote that I should have done way more manual leveling first. Oop.

I haven’t printed anything yet. Just did the hotend replacement and my bed is apparently overheating now. Wheeee.
