Welcome @Aceman
Doug the newbie here (from Australia). I too was a total newbie 3 months ago and I threw myself into learning; mind you I am retired and have plenty of time. You will find the Forum is friendly and helpful with lots of good advice and hints. Look at the Snaplinks entry.
Join Thinigiverse it is free, then search for Snapmaker and you will find a great collection of projects to get you started. Those projects were uploaded by many of the talented and experienced users.of this forum.
From there on it is just more learning and having fun.
Doug
