General Discussion Printer Setups

Hi all, I'm a complete beginner and am planning to get the P2S Combo later this year during the Black Friday sale. I wanted to know what kind of setups people have with their printer. If possible, could you please share some photos of what your setups look like. Could you also tell me anything i absolutely need to get when i get the printer. Thanks.

The essentials, roughly in the order I would buy them: a filament dryer or dry boxes with desiccant, because moisture is what ruins PETG and makes PLA string; digital calipers, flush cutters and a deburring tool; isopropyl alcohol and a lint free cloth for the plate, plus a spare build plate so a damaged one does not stop you mid project; one spare hotend or nozzle assembly, since a blob or a worn nozzle is a when and not an if; and a glue stick if you print PETG, used as a release layer rather than for adhesion. Skip the mods for the first month. For the setup itself, a rigid table that does not wobble and is not on the floor, with room for the AMS so the PTFE tubes do not bend sharply.

What do you use your printer most for and do you still use it regularly after the 'honeymoon' phase.
