so im a teen with not alot of money but i want to get into 3d printing, another community suggested the ender 3 original. it looks like a solid printer but who know im a noob after all. my budget is around 100$ or less. im looking into making mini figures and painting them or whatever nerdy thing i find. i know the budget is tight but im hoping there is something, also im debating on buying a used 3d printer because they seem cheaper.

also any tips for a noob would be great like what makes said model good or bad compared to other models and such.

Sovol SV06 works pretty great for me :)

Same here. SV06 was my first printer a few months ago. I've printed for a few hundred hours without issue. Very easy to upgrade the software with a raspi and mainsailos.
