After wanting one for years, I finally pulled the trigger and bought a 3D printer. I bought a Creality Ender 3 Pro from Micro Center because they're currently doing a sale for $219.99 instead of the usual $280-$300. Currently it's printing a 3D Benchy, hopefully I calibrated it right and it goes well.

    @Tech_Dreamer I'd like to do some light mods to the printer and then work on some Nintendo Switch parts, custom Lego pieces and maybe some PC accessories too. Before I can do that though I have to get the dimensional accuracy right. The Y-axis and Z-axis are correct but the X-axis is on the small side right now.

    Okay nice, I just got the printer within 0.1mm accuracy on all three axes and I'm going to try a mod for the printer. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2987100
