Hi floridaservices,
>>> I'm new to all of it so lack of endstops makes it interesting as well.
I have had to leap for the power switch quite a few times

>>> I get the impression that there are still a lot of these around...
I thought the same, initially. When this domain name became available, I hoped there might be enough people still using them that they could come here and build a community. So far, that hasn't really happened. Since no one has to log in here to view the content, it's extremely hard to tell whether anyone is finding value in the forums.
>>> Ender 3 is in my future
Sounds fine - I have a Creality CR-10, and it's pretty cool. Sadly, I have not had time to do much with it, but it has worked very well so far. It's very tempting to spend as little as possible on a printer when getting your feet wet. I would recommend the CR-10, because the build volume is astounding - heck, the thing is 16 inches tall! If you have a purpose in mind, and you are certain you won't need that size, then your'e good. If you are just saving money, you can find the CR-10 for around $400, and in my opinion, it's worth it to have the space.
In any case, good luck. Stop on back and post some results.
