Hi I am a newbie to 3d printing and I wanted to learn the basics of 3d printers by building a kit build, so I selected a sintron printer... I am having a few issues with the build, has anyone on this site built one? Also what is a good material of filament to start with and who would be a good supplier?
Many thanks for any help
Matt

Well...

I think 52 pages to read should be enough to start from :-)

@Filament: Depends on where in the world you are.

personally I like PLA because ABS tends to warp much more.
Good & cheap supplier for PLA in Europe is http://www.dasfilament.de

I search E-Bay as I have had good luck, and getting a refund is guaranteed though it does take time.
