• Ender 3 V3 KE: An affordable, beginner-friendly printer that offers great performance for the price. At just $240, it's hard to beat for those new to 3D printing.

• Bambu Lab P1P: While priced higher at $600, the Bambu Lab P1P is worth every penny. Having owned three Creality printers, I can say with confidence that the Bambu Lab P1P stands out in terms of reliability and performance. If you're willing to invest a bit more, it will save you both time and headaches in the long run.

Filament Choices:

Once you've chosen your printer, the next step is selecting the filament. Different projects and levels of experience may require different   types of materials:

• Filament: PLA+ is a must. It is easy to print with, offers strength, and is great for those just starting out.
