No fucking clue mate sry

No worries

1. Learn CAD first.

2. Proper calibration is more important than anything else.

3. Spend more on a printer than you think you can afford or you'll spend dozens of hours trying to fight the cheap printer you bought instead of learning how to properly print.

Thanks Beave 👍

I've been wanting to learn myself. Watched a few Onshape tutorials. Might try learning that a bit more before buying a 3D printer.

I'm no expert but the Ender 3 with some fun attachments has been fun. Cura slicer software (FOSS, works on Linux). Thingaverse for files. Lots of tutorials on the YouTubes.

"fun attachments have been fun"

😅
