Learning about 3D printers and looking for input

[Technical Ted]

Decided to jump in with an Ender 3 V2 today.
Still working on my F360 skills!

Congrats! One thing, you'll get your Ender before I get my Prusa! I still have 3-1/2 weeks to wait (if it ships on time)!

Have fun!
Ted

How are you making out with your new printer? I'm sure you've learned a lot by now...

I've machined printed ABS quite a few times. Cuts just fine and you can get good surface finish.

I've read that ABS is kind of nasty to print...fumes etc...
How did you find it to use?

Yes, its nasty. You MUST have an exhaust fan and enclosure. But, it glues, paints, welds, and is drop kick-able.

Is it literally the same thing as ABS pipe?

Well my printer arrived today but I’m in the bloody hospital diagnosed with pulmonary embolisms.
Dang it!
