What are your favorite resources to recommend for beginners?

I'm wanting to get interested for doing a cyberdeck case, and/or custom cluster racks for Raspberry Pi's but any and all newbie resources would be appropriate for this question.

At some point you're going to need to recalibrate your printer. The prints just won't be as good as they should. And it can be very very frustrating trying to figure out what's wrong. I highly recommend this website: https://teachingtechyt.github.io/calibration.html

Excellent! Not something I would've immediately thought of but sounds critical to good prints.

If you want to try using Blender I recommend this video to check out if that's the road you want to go:

Learn Blender for 3D Printing - Complete Quick and Easy Guide (Beginner)

Depending on your experience you might check out existing models on sites like printables.com or thingiverse.com

While not for 3D printing specifically, Andrew Price's donut tutorial on YouTube is a great primer for learning to use Blender and all is basic functions.
