First thing to print would be a Benchy, since you really need to tune the system

As for needed materials, I have 2:

A 3D printing pen - this is invaluable to cover tiny imperfections or "glue" 2 pieces together. Since it uses the same materials you print with, it's better than other glues since it will sand and paint the same as the rest of the model.

The 2nd is a palette knife. The SnapMaker includes a really nice one - super thin. It's great for prying the model off of the build surface once you are done, because some of them really just want to stick so much. I'd have broken so many models if I didn't have one.

1)The first thing I want to print using the 3D printer is PHONE CASE COVER with a unique design that can protect my phone and it's screen when it falls and totally covers my phone.My phone model is OPPO F17 PRO.

$Why I need it?I haven't got a phone cover till now that totally covered my phone and protected it's screen when it fell.Due to screen damage,we lost all the data in the phone.I would like to gift one phone cover to my mom cause she often drops her phone and I would also want to have one phone cover for my mobile.My mom's phone model is INFINIX HOT 10.

If possible I would also want these prepared by a 3D printer.

*A waterproof watch that has a never dying battery and cool colour.

*TXT MOA LIGHT STICK, because it's too expensive to buy.TXT is a K-pop boy band group,TXT lightstick is a prop used in the concerts.It emits coloured lights in concerts.The model of it can be seen from Google.

2)I have no idea about tools of the 3D printer.I would love to get any of the above items in anyway you make them.

Thank you for this opportunity.

1.i want to print a toy for my kids, family first

2.missing in the package are some tools, like scaple or a sharp knife  and some  protective gloves

1) What is the first thing you are going to print and why?

I hope I can exploit its usefulness to benefit the people around me by printing a face mask holder that can allow the wearers to breath easier when wearing the mask, especially the elderly. I know that there are soft materials such as TPU that 3D printer can use. With the ability of customisation that 3D printing can offer, the face mask holder can conform better to the facial shape of a human. This can also encourage us to wear our face mask properly.

2) Some items that could be added include:

a) Items to protect the 3D printer itself so as to maintain its reliability. These could include:

i) An enclosure to protect the 3D printer itself from accidental knocks, dusts, dirt, etc.

ii) Lubricant to apply on moving parts of the 3D printer to minimise wear and tear of its moving parts.

b) Items to improve the print.

i) To ensure a good first layer adhesion to the base, alcohol pads could be used to clean off foreign debris like dusts, etc.

ii) To have a smooth desirable surface finish (for PLA material), consider using lacquer (nail polish) or sand paper.

c) Housekeeping:

i) Small brush or vacuum to clean the 3D printer work area.

ii) Consider a dehumidifer box or vacuum sealed box to store the 3D printer filament so as to minimise its degradation and ensure a good quality print.

1)What's the first thing you're going to print and why?

I would like to 3D print neoprene seal to utilize it in my profession as a plumber

2) What are we missing from this list?  Any special tools/procedures/secrets that you use to get the best 3D prints?

user's guide I guess

1) What's the first thing you're going to print and why?

I would 3D print antennas!!

Yes! You read it correct. 3D printed antennas are gaining popularity among researchers and there already are multiple papers published on 3D printed antennas and other electronic devices.

Since, my area of research is Antennas, I would like to 3D print one, (might as well fetch me a good paper publication ).

So, the way this is done is, instead of using conventional substrates like FR-4, RO4350B, etc for antennas, an artificial dielectric medium can be printed using a 3D printer and later it can be coated with conductive inks to get a working antenna.

Not just antennas, but even microwave lenses for focusing microwave beams are being 3D printed nowadays. Quite an interesting application!

What's missing from the list?

1. Though the list has a dremel rotary tool, sometimes a sandpaper comes in handy where manual polishing is required.

2. A surgical blade/sharp knife for cutting any leftover material from the edges of the print.

3. Lastly, a hot wire cutter and a soldering iron for smooth finishes and create holes in the 3D printed design for holding nuts for screws (in case of enclosures, etc).

My first next thing to print will most likely be custom enclosures for sensor projects I'm working on.

It could also be an artsy frame for my wife's projects.

Missing from the list is definitely the precision side-cutters, as I often need to snip the filament a certain way to get it started in the printer.

Maybe also a spatula/scraper to help pop the print off the bed.

Good choices colporteur That style of craft knife is by far the most useful tool in 3D printing. Lots of blades are needed as PLA will dull the blades quite quickly. The flush side cutters would be the next most useful, followed by a sharp edged putty knife for removing prints form beds. Other useful items are a sanding block, files, a rubber jaw vise, a nozzle spanner and a chisel. Has anyone ever found a set of rubber-jawed vise grip pliers?

I don't "need" another 3D printer right now, but filament and 3D printing accessories are always useful.

One of my bucket list of printer projects is to design and build a filament spool holder that will prevent all tangles and jamming of filament on the spool. The most common cause for my prints to fail is a filament jam on the spool. It doesn't happen on every spool, but needless to say, encountering a jam near the end of a long unattended print can be vey disappointing. When the filament coming off gets gets caught under another layer that loosened off, puling on the filament just tightens the "knot" and the filament can no longer come off the reel. This is a glaring gap in 3D printer technology offerings - they don't even have an alarm or automatic pause when a knot happens.

3D printing for me would be enclosures. Small unique boxes to fit electronic projects.

I'm frustrated having to spend money on project boxes. I never find one that fits just right. I usually have to find something that is close and live with it.

I dream of a selection of box templates of different sizes. Length, width and depth are all customisation. The cover is four screw minimum at the corners and for boxes of greater length the option to add additional holes. Inside the box you can conveniently position mounting holes to secure a printed circuit board of point to secure a cable tie.

If I was to purchase a 3D printer I suspect there would be a proliferation of boxes of all shapes and sizes.

Since I have no experience with 3D printing, I'm pitching two tools I find extremely useful when working with plastic models. I have also had reason to use them on 3D printed items I have ordered online. The Exacto Knife and sidecutters.  They are great for extracting items and cleaning of any small plastic burrs.

3D printers don’t make precise holes, especially on vertical sides, so a drill and bits / step bits are useful.  A pin vise and small set of bits works well for small holes. I now use 3mm heat set threaded inserts on builds that need to be taken apart and reassembled frequently.  And from time to time it is necessary to glue parts. For that I prefer two part epoxy for the strength.
