Decide if you want to print or tinker with your printer first. I personally don’t like the tinkering portion and learned that after it was too late. Don’t be afraid to save what you’ve got now and buy the right printer not the one that is easily picked up right now
I do not know much about 3d printing right now, so I would like to start printing and get a feel for it before I get into the tweaking bit.
