My first 3D Printer should arrive in ~10 days, anything else I need to buy or get before it arrives? (lemmy.nz)

I'm pretty excited, I ordered the Kobra X, along with 9kg of various colour filaments.

I'm wondering if I'm missing some stuff like bed glue, a scraping tool or things I haven't even thought of. What do I need in preparation?

It's cool bud. We all know what life's like right now and finding enjoyment in anything is very hard whilst having principles.

I don't have much to add except maybe an enclosure for temperature/airflow management if you're gonna print temperature sensitive filaments.

I really hope the printer works out well for you, have fun.
