1) Sure, you can use any 1.75 filament and it should work just fine. Of course, as long as it's not defective or something.

2) I would just start with the default items that come with both the kit or the assembled version. You can always order additional stuff down the road if you want, but you don't need anything else just to get started.

3) You can use any program that can output to a .STL file. There are many to choose from, but Google's free SketchUp is a great place to start... http://www.sketchup.com/

4) You can add items to your cart and then select the shipping method before you have to actually pay.
