I am looking to buy a 3d printer. I am a beginner and want to enter 3d printing. I will mostly using for personal projects only.
So could you guys recommend which model will be best for me. I am planning to buy a decent model which I won’t need to change in future (not very expensive though) and where can I buy the printer? I will need to buy it online as there are no local shops selling near me.
Also, which software you use to design STL files.

I looking to buy a processor for a barebone Mini pc. I am trying to get i5-8500 or 8500T. I checked online and it’s really expensive there.
Have you guys bought used processors? Any leads from where I can get used processors and if you have bought one what is the price you bought for?

I have started to build my homelab. I am going to build my own pfsense router.
I am thinking to choose between n100 mini pc or used mini pc like thinkcentre 720q.
What are your suggestions? What kind of hardware you are using? If you have any lead or links where I can buy the hardware, it would be great.
