The Modteam of r/3dprinting wishes everybody a Merry Christmas!
Enjoy the holidays with your family and have a good time.

If you are new to this subreddit because a loved one gifted you with your very own spaghetti factory 3D Printer, don't be intimated by the sheer volume of information that is going to come your way, you can take it one step at the time and many new printer models will take the bulk of the work off your hands.

We do have a lot of resources where you can learn some very neat things about 3D Printers. From the bare basics to maybe some advanced tuning. Some of these resources include:

• our subreddit wiki
• You can just quickly ask in the comments below this post
• Loads of youtube channels dedicated to printer setup, different printer makes, models or maufacturers
• loads of partner communities that might specialize in your printer make, model or manufacturing method like resin printing
• Many manufacturers have their own wikis for their printers, for example Creality
• On that note, if you are resin printing we highly emplore you to seek a safety guide like this small one in our wiki before trying anything. resin printing can be highly dangerous. Definitely look into resin safety yourself aswell
• Past Posts obviously. Findable through the search feature
• And if all else fails, we pride ourselves in keeping gatekeeping in the community to a minimum, so don't be afraid to just ask anything in a post, regardless of how simple. We all started somewhere

And dont be discouraged by your first failure. These things are a part of 3D Printing aswell.
Once again, we wish everyone old and new Merry Christmas and Happy Printing!

And if you are experienced in 3D Printing already, maybe a regular on this subreddit, keep in mind that everybody starts somewhere, so please be polite and helpful to everybody, regardless of how simple the solution might seem for you or how many "got a new printer!" posts or benchies you have already seen today.
