I have always wanted to try printing larger, using a bigger nozzle - just got around to swapping to a .6mm in my MK3S+. Printed a gift for a childhood friend. 300% size. Took just under 10 hrs. With the slicer settings on .4mm it was over 17hrs.

    It’s an ender 3 pro with the stock hot end, but it’s also running klipper and prints at 60mm/s

      I have the same setup and with a bigger nozzle I found it useful to use auto speed and max volumetric flow, rather than speed. I found the hotend reaches its flow capacity before speed becomes an issue.

        What slicer are you using? I’m using Cura and I vaguely remember that being the reason why I didn’t do that.

          I’ve been using super slicer, but it’s a fork of prusa slicer and I’m pretty sure the auto speed feature is a prusa slicer thing.
