I’ve had an interest in 3d printing for a while and had a few models on my wishlist, but long story short a mutual friend wanted an upgrade, and I was the first one to accept their model that they no longer needed. I cannot ask them for help. I’ll probably try to ask them what specifically they changed about the printer, but I can’t know that they’ll take the time to respond to me.
I’d like to know where to start with this. I got what seems like an entire 3d printer in addition to a box with a bunch of parts and stuff in it. I’m wondering if I should disassemble the printer and put it back together to get an idea of what I’m dealing with? Or if I should just be grateful it’s together and try and use it. It’d also be helpful if someone could help me identify which parts are not stock and what I should expect while using those parts.
Thank you,
Semi

Hammering the model off is how I lost a quarter inch of glass out of my bed haha thats when I switched to PEI and just flex the plate to remove stuff now. PETG and glass never really got along for me though and I primarily print that on my 3.
Correct it turns it all metal, I just remember being back and forth on what else I needed to buy at that point and really just a good heatbrake does wonders, no larger heat sink or anything at least not until you start changing other stuff up.
