Prusa i3v ABS printing with 0.35mm JHead mount

[mastermind42]

I am pretty new to 3D printing. I just put together my calibrated my bed and have had some decent quality PLA prints. I want to start trying to print in ABS and was wondering what advice people have for it. I considered putting a closed enclosure around my printer to help maintain a warmer temp inside the printer. Is this worth doing?

Also, I have been using glue on my glass print boards to help stick the first layer to the board. Is this a good idea for ABS printing as well?

Hey mastermind42, welcome to the forums!

Others with an enclosure will chime in but generally it is worth doing to reduce the lifting and curling of prints but is not required. I print ABS with an open room and no enclosure and print just fine. If you put a brim on your part in your slicing software this will help just as much.

Should work, I use hairspray on my bed for ABS.
