Hi all! I would like to join the group of 3D printer owners but I don't have any experience. I don't want to buy a cheap printer just to find myself buying a better one in a few months so I set my price in the middle segment (I think).

I am going to set it up in my office which has AC but direct sun light for some hours a day. Is a full case recommended?

What printer can you recommend for me and what software (windows) can I use to design and print some parts?

If you need any more info please let me know.

Kind regards in anvance

Owning a Bambu P1P, I would highly suggest an X1 Carbon. I started on the cheap bed slingers and have now moved on and will never look back.

I went from an Ender 3 to the X1-C and be never been happier with not cheaping out!
