^^ This is good advice. Even without the heat chamber mod an enclosed chamber with a heated platform will reach 40-45C. One key thing you are eluding to are printing higher temp materials and a larger build volume. That means not only are you going to want the ability to enclose, and have a heated bed you are going to need an all metal hot end. That to me points at the Ultimaker 2+ Extendedd. If you can give up the large build chamber than a modified Flashforge or Qidi would fit the bill.
When printing with ABS hacking up a larger model and bonding the pieces together is what I typically do. Gel superglue works like a champ this way. The thing with large builds is they take a long time and it really sucks to get 10 or more hours and the material into it only to have it fail.
Printer will print perfect...
