... Ordered 3-D Printer a couple days ago...
Explore with PLA, hopefully your printer will come with a spool, and go from there
I have the same hope (Re initial supply) but reading I'm learning.
I know I will be looking into spare nozzles and likely alternative filaments, both color and type.
Right now I have a place to put it... Freecycled a stand (Heavy TV stand dang near did not make it up the stairs heavy) Very solid. Looks large enough. Hope printer understands Wi-Fi or I'll have to re-arrange stuff... Working on software now... Need easiest to use to start with but I need to draw a few simple parts. Specifically a control knob and two button caps. (one square one who cares)
And I registered at Thingaverse.
look at thinkercad, its web based, for simple part design. What printer did you get? most don't do wifi, unless for more expensive models. Its generally sd card for printing unless you go the usb route with a computer or PI.
Keep it simple for now. I am still using the SD card a year later
