Looking for beginner-friendly workflow and material choices for 3D printing projects

02 Eki 20:00

I'm planning to start a few personal projects and need a solid, beginner-friendly workflow. What are the key steps you all follow from bed leveling to slicer settings? How do you decide which filament family (PLA, PETG, ABS) fits a given geometry or functional requirement? Any tips on common calibration pitfalls, optimal print speeds, or simple post‑processing tricks? Also curious about resources for learning the basics without getting overwhelmed. Would love to hear your typical approach and any shortcuts that helped you avoid early frustrations.
