    Finally dipping my toes in the waters of 3D printing. Picked up my first resin printer (Elegoo Mars) for a steal, and am looking into picking up a good FDM printer (Probably a Bambu P1P/S) in the near future. Would be cool to start printing handy truck mods and trinkets. I surprisingly didn't see any subforums related to sharing models for personal use; anyone have any cool/useful ones they don't mind sharing with noobs like me?

    I bought an ender 3 and couldn’t get it leveled just right and threw it in my closet. Going to save up for one that’s preleveled and ready to go

    Best mod I ever printed was the sauce holder for ac vents, I used PLA+ and it still melted after being out in the heat for a day though :/

    I hear great things about the Bambu P1P. Its a little pricy but I've seen how wonderfully it prints. If you want a more budget-friendly one, the Sovol SV06 is solid as well. My printing guru friend said it was pretty much plug-and-play after bolting together a few pieces outta the box. No leveling needed (in fact I'm pretty sure it self-levels)
