Hi everyone,
As in the title, I would start to learn how to design models for 3D printing and the basics about 3D printing, but I’m a total noob.
Do you have any suggestions about where to start?
Thanks everybody

For very basic model making, try tinkercad, it runs in your browser and gives you some basic controls to make objects.
Knowing what printer you have might allow others to give you advice, some printers behave differently than others in terms of hardware and system software.
Good luck
Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll look into Tinkercad for starting.
Actually I don’t have any printer and I really don’t know where to start looking at. Thanks again
What is your goal for 3D printing? Are you looking to print random knick knacks, functional prints, or just experiment?
Printers vary a lot in what they can do and their user-friendliness. You can go from simpler, almost plug and play models to more complex ones that require much more tinkering. They also vary a lot in price from a few hundred to thousands of dollars.
Thank you! I would like to print little cartoon characters for decorative cakes. I can’t find them on the web so I was thinking that I could make them.
