    I hope you aren’t running abs in an area you will spend time in. It stinks and is very finicky to print. I switched to petg and never looked back. I still have two rolls in their boxes I’m never going to use.

        Good idea. I have my 3D printer inside an enclosure (Ender 5 with the medium size tent) and attached a ventilation hose to the top of the enclosure using a plywood board.

        That hose feeds into my apartments central ventilation unit so all fumes get blown outside. Alternatively you can buy a fan and hang the hose out the windows.

        Microplastic is nasty.
