"stupid" newbie questions

Hello
So i have ordered a mk3s printer and there are some questions that i still have about 3d printing and the printer.
When i ordered the printer there where no (or hard to find) info about if there's any filament with the printer, what type and any info about max printing size (like max x y and z) .

And as a newbie i was wondering what is the best 3d software to use and some lesions on YouTube or any other media to get starting with, i hope to print parts for cars and motorcycles (like rivets, airflow's and housings).

I'm still waiting to get my printer (4 days left) if there's any info you can give a totally newbie please help me with links or other info...

Hello svante,

From the website: "1 kg (2 lbs) silver PLA filament included".

There is no "best 3d software". You can search in this forum, this question is pretty common. Keywords: "Fusion 360", "OpenSCAD", "FreeCAD", ....

Welcome to the community 🙂

Both questions are answered in this portion of the web page I just copied.

Get experience with the current one especially if it's your first printer. It might sound small but it's not.

And no - expanding print volume is expensive and will require 0) a new printer 1) $$$ money $$$ 2) a lot of space in your lab 3) many more spools of plastic per part.
