I have always wanted to try printing larger, using a bigger nozzle - just got around to swapping to a .6mm in my MK3S+. Printed a gift for a childhood friend. 300% size. Took just under 10 hrs. With the slicer settings on .4mm it was over 17hrs.

    Thanks for the ideas, yeah I’ve tried playing around with the presets and such, and I’m fairly certain the filament itself is good, matterhackers pro PETG.

    When I have a moment I’ll be trying to make an extrusion tower to test settings.

      PETG is very leaky. It’s not a big deal with 0.4, but becomes a pain with 0.6. Try to set a higher printing speed.
