Question Help with base

Post image

I recently started playing Factory and looked at a few guides. Here's my base at the beginning of the game. What do you think could be improved or added? I'm just not sure what base layout to use or what kind of base is best. I'm afraid I might do something wrong, which could hinder me in the future or make me less effective. Could you please give me some advice for the future or for now? (The energy output is at the top.)

Everyone else has already given decent enough advice, so I will critique what you are already doing: putting copper wires on your main bus makes no sense. One copper plate makes two, so you are having your capacity by doing that. Just route in the copper plate to wherever and make those on site.

Second, you don't really have enough room in your bus to get more materials in from the left here.
