Hi, all. So my first ever 3D printer is on its way to me. I went with an Elegoo Centauri Carbon, partially for the option of using OpenCentauri firmware. I have been looking at various models on printables.com and Thingiverse, getting excited for the possibilities. I would just like to ask if there are any big pitfalls I should look out for as I’m starting my 3D printing adventure. What mistakes did you make when you were just starting out? What resources do you wish you were aware of earlier? What general advice can you give me?
Thanks in advance, and have a lovely day.
Okay, great. Thanks for the Youtube recommendations. I’ll make some time to watch those channels, for sure.
Oh, and there are a lot of creators in the space angry with Bambu about open source violations while still picking on “the little guy”
If you’re not interested in that, just skip those videos. Stefan (CNCKitchen) acknowledged the controversy, but he doesn’t talk about it beyond that. The other two I mentioned haven’t even brought it up as far as I know
