I’m currently showing off. did a scraper, then a benchy, and a small person asked me if I could print a rabbit. so I’m preparing a few for her duplo.
I can’t argue.

I’m envious. My son-in-law got a Bambu P1S for Christmas and I helped him set it up and try it out. He gave me permission to use it any time, but of course, that means driving to their house and getting in line behind him and his two sons! They are madly printing stuff for his older son’s obsessive D&D.

yes, I’m starting an Alien RPG campaign in a few weeks with friends, I’m gonna print scary facehuggers and various aliens before then.
Bambu did a great job, it’s quite intuitive, lots of parameters available but you don’t need to be a 3d master to use it.
and between my couple of years with a laser cutter and now with the paper plotter, the first steps were even simpler.
I chose to go with the A1 mini as a starting point. I might upgrade it later if I feel like it. Check the second-hand market, there are quite a few there (people getting one, learning to print, and upgrading)

So, I started printing stuff. Stuff made by other first, to get a hang on it. Then I sketchup’ed a small box with an einstein tile pattern on top. The pattern took longer than
3d printing is nice. Feels like à obvious step forward
Fun fact. If you print a lego at 3:1 scale, its hands are the right size to hold a pencil. Or a bic pen.

A1 Mini, best choice today to begin in the 3D printing world 
For Christmas, I gifted my son (and myself 
) an A1 based on great reviews I heard at the last 3DBC. High recommendations came from some folks who design exhibits and toys for children museums. Looking forward to seeing what else you print in the year ahead.
