Try to go with something popular so you can find help when things inevitably go wrong. Expect to learn a lot when building. If you like that, awesome, do it. Otherwise you may want to consider a prebuilt prusa or bambu.
How much money do you want to put into a setup? With $1000, you an get any of the really good printers, a different size nozzle, a few little tools, and plenty of filament.
Another reason for me to buy a 3d printer. Any tips on building one folks?
Buy an ender 3 if you’re cheap and have plenty of tinker time. Buy something by Bambu if you have cash and want ease of use.
I’m more broke but want to get one anyway and I am between the technical and ease of use mode.
