One of the best things about getting your very first 3D printer kit is the assembly. Building your first 3D printer may take some time, however, it's the perfect way to get to know the machine in detail. Not only that, but it's also a lot of fun to put the whole machine together.
The length of the assembly depends on the type of printer and generally takes several hours, complicated setups can take a day or two. However it is not a race, so take your time, follow the instructions, and enjoy the construction!

Common assembly errors
- Do not rush with the assembly as going fast through usually means that some mistakes are made in the process. And it's more time-consuming to fix them than doing everything properly right from the start.
- Once you see anything labeled in RED, always double-check that you followed these instructions correctly. These are usually essential steps in the whole assembly. Not following them might cause future problems, delays, and in the worst-case scenario even damage to the product.
