    just bear in mind if you do print it with a different type of plastic, it will be a bit bigger. ABS shrinks quite a lot.

    Good to know. I had known about the differential cooling and warping issues with ABS and it makes sense there would be general shrinkage. But luckily my ABS part came out spot on the first time.
