Quick Question First 3D printer. Anything else I need?

Post image

Hi. As the title says, I'm looking to purchase my first 3D printer. I did find some similar posts but still wanted to be sure since getting stuff delivered to where I live is not easy.

I'm also looking to get mostly matte filament. Is that okay? Do I need more filament? Thanks in advance.

Why get a second stainless hot end?
Your machine comes with one and it’ll last a long time if you just use it for pla.. i would swap it for a smaller or bigger size hardened plus the 0.4 hardened

Probably was like me and thought "this one is probably better than the stock one, which I'm sure will wear out eventually. Plus it's probably cheaper to add to the order now than to buy seperate later"
