Starter printer?
I got the Elegoo Neptune 3, and its worked well as my first printer. I use it with the Ultimaker Cura slicer software, and blender to play with the 3d models.

How can I make this better? Tips please 🙏
Most of the advice here is sound, though may seem a little brief.It does look like you have Z-offset issues on this print, but also that the printbed is not level. Each foot of the tower has a different z-offset, with one being close to correct and the foot opposite being the most away from true.htt
