What should a beginner soldering setup include?

A temperature-controlled iron, a stand with a tip cleaner, flux-core solder, tweezers, a heat-resistant work mat, and ventilation. USB-C PD irons are popular because one charger can power the iron, a laptop, and a phone.

Why does 3D-printer filament need drying?

Most filaments absorb moisture from the air; wet filament pops and strings while printing and produces weaker parts. A filament dryer or a sealed box with desiccant keeps spools printable.
