  • I started with an Ender 3 Pro. It’s a great printer to start with and learn how 3d printing works. Last year I upgraded to a Bambu X1 Carbon. Since then, there has been no more tinkering, no more bed leveling, no more manual calibration, no more ferrying microsd cards back and forth, hardly any troubleshooting, and what few issues I’ve had were easily solved. The Ender is great to learn on, like a first car. You beat it up, fix it, break it, fix it again. Once you outgrow it, I’d recommend a Bambu.

    When you need to weld two 3d printed parts together, try Weld-On 3. It comes with a hypodermic applicator. Press the parts tight together, then drip some Weld-On 3 in the seam. The liquid is a strong solvent that dissolves the surface of both pieces, but within a minute the parts are welded together. It’s the BEST way to weld two 3d printed parts together I have ever used. Use in a well ventilated area.
