<TLDR> • Experience: none • Size: > 20x20x20 cm • Price Range: 800-1500€ • Print Medium: PLA </TLRD>

Hi all! I would like to join the group of 3D printer owners but I don’t have any experience. I don’t want to buy a cheap printer just to find myself buying a better one in a few months so I set my price in the middle segment (I think).

I am going to set it up in my office which has AC but direct sun light for some hours a day. Is a full case recommended?

What printer can you recommend for me and what software (windows) can I use to design and print some parts?

If you need any more info please let me know.

Kind regards in anvance

    Haha just be grateful you live within driving distance of a Microcenter. I think I’d need to take a couple hour plane ride to be within driving distance of our closest store.

      Haha true that. I moved into my current place about a year and a half ago, and then decided to buy a 4080 a few months in. Imagine the delight on my face when I realized there was a Micro Center less than a mile away! I go there all the time for 3D printing stuff these days.
