Maybe improperly worder, but the X-axis (left to right movement) in the Monoprice is only supported on the left side. In most chink tier printers like the Prusa or Ender copies, the printhead is always supported on two sides. Moving your toolhead away from the base adds torque, and unless you use a very stiff and thick arm it'll bend, which may or may not be noticable in printing results. As long as you limit the overhang (and thus build volume) it's probably fine but it's clearly a cost cutting decision for cheapass printers, not something made for precision at a reasonable cost.

I'm not Swedish, I just googled what Swedens regional craigslist alternative is, you can figure it out yourself if ou actually speak the language.

Monoprice Select Mini V2. The axis is only supported from the left side rather than the right, so that does make sense. And I was worried that it would be the shitty tensioners.

First time 3d printer here, I have narrowed all the possible printers I want to work with down to this one.

Plan on making an order next month.

Now I want to know of some recommended modifications to it. I know for sure I am giving it a glass build plate. Anything else?

Keep in mind, I really only ever plan on printing with PLA. I am going to be totally boring and not experiment with ABS or nylot or flex filament or anything like that.
