    Dang, I have .8s for all my hotends but haven’t got around to trying them. Some day though.

    Thanks for the motivation.

        Yeah totally get it, going to .6 already forced me to switch to 5kg spools on my commonly used filament.

        Any troubles keeping up with extruding through a .8? Having a reason to spend money on a higher performance hot end was my main worry from using it.

    I printed some tiny but detailed board game pieces recently, I don’t think I’d get the detail I wanted with a 0.8. I also have Revo installed so I’m okay with swapping nozzles frequently.

      For years now, I’ve always want to see someone try a dual nozzle setup. Same material, same filament, but two nozzles sizes.

      Small nozzle for outer perimeter at a low layer height.

      Large nozzle for inner perimeter and infill at higher layer heights.

      Maybe in the future, someone will find a way to control nozzle size dynamically.
