thats about  2000 usd

Seems a bit high for a start considering you can get 3D printers for ~$200. But I don't know. This will be future-proof, which is a good thing. Yeah - stick to it, this larger one. I'm sure there'll be features you'll want later that a cheaper one won't have.

Seems good, but how much is that in US dollars? For a beginner like you, you may not need something so big and expensive.

Does this site have a bambulab a1 mini or a1? those would cost significantly less but still give good out of the box user experience.

n another question are resin printers better?

Not better; jsut different.

 

Resin printers are the best for high detailed prints, such as if you wanted to capture texture, fabric or surface finishes on parts. Or have very small figurines (Warhammer 40k models are popular for example)

 

However, they require more machines than just a printer (a cleaning station and a curing station) not to mention the extra PPE and room ventilation installed due to the VOC's.

Yes; if you learn how to sue the machine you can get great results with it.
