@charmed_electron printer type and size depends on what you want. Consider the software to use on it, printers may only like some slices. I've found FDM and Resin printers to be complimentary. I'd agree with person about getting a suitable space. I use my loft, getting a place away from you main living space is needed. Temperature is an issue but settings can account for some of this.
I think of my FDM printer as mechanical tool to build things. My resin printer feels more like cooking!

@PeleSpirit good luck. I didn't regret it. Been lots of fun!

@parallax I can vouch for the Mars 3. To some extent it depends on what you are printing but 28mm miniatures are great.

@PeleSpirit 3D printing is fun but it can be a time sink. Consider how much done you can invest in this. If you want to push on with other things then POD may be best. If you want to have it as a tool in your bag, then buy one for sure.

One thing I would say about resin printers is they can't be left for long periods and are best cleaned and packed away if you aren't using them.

@KroninJ @joemansmoke oh and a set of files can be useful as well.

Useful for the small supports and difficult to reach ones.
