Welcome to your new obsession, lol
123D Design is a great program to start learning 3D design. pretty easy to use and learn.
for some excellent tutorials, check here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOZ-4b … sZQ/videos
there is nothing more satisfying than creating your own model and then printing it out successfully.
ABS likes a warm environment, with no drafts - your printer is an open frame - not the ideal conditions for ABS printing. Yes, it can be done, but as you have found, it is not easy. Building some sort of enclosure around the printer would greatly improve you chances of printing ABS successfully. even something as simple as a large cardboard box placed over the printer would improve your chances.
Welcome to the Madness. Where are you from in Canada.
