What to buy? - eviltoast

<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

    Learning 3D modeling is slow process, but there are loads of free models online.

    I learned how to use Fusion360 a couple months ago by asking GPT-4. The key is to start with an object you want that’s simple enough to describe, and ask lots of questions.
