Hi
I cant advise much of other printers, but i can share my first experience.
I had around 200euro for bugdet (abit flexible for the right machine). But as i was completely new to 3dprinting, i wanted a cheap first printer that i knew would atleast print something when i turned it on.
I searched for a long time, and finally found a used printer in the local area (about 35km away) that i know worked (as the owner had used it for around 400h in total) plus i would also get a demonstration of the machine, as well as a basic lesson on the machine and printing in general.
The machine i found was a Tevo Nereus that was sent to a youtuber for review (is was a pre-production model) but the difference was it was only missing the filament sensor compared to the, at the time, 450euro new machine.
Now i got a demonstrated, used machine plus a lesson on the tech.
All for 200e.
Now many month later, i have used it for another 4-500 hours and the bearings needs a change as well a full service.
I also got a standard 4mm window glassbed to put on top as the buildplate was just a tad skewed.
Now i got myself another printer, deltaprinter FLSUN QQ-S with the 32bit board and new autolevel probe. It cost me aroun 290euro in total.
Just thought i'd share my "getting first printer" story. Perhaps it could help.
Please explain to me how to...
