I managed to find the greatest deal ever on a used 3D printer. I’ve already got a new screen with updated firmware, a new hotend kit on its way today, and I am planning on replacing the bed with tempered glass at some point (I am nervous about ordering it online). I’m also getting the enclosure because my apartment is very small.

All told, I will have spent about $175 CAD for the whole thing and I’m pretty chuffed about it.

Is there anything else I should be doing or getting to make this thing epic?

This is my first time using a 3D printer, and it has taken a little time to learn. I will happily take any advice you have to offer.

I’m editing to add that I appreciate the comments and advice, and I’m following everything all of you are telling me. As a late adopter, enthusiasts like you are a goldmine, and I am super grateful for your help!
