ABS vs. HDPE cylinder
Two hollow cylinders. On the left printed with ABS and on the right with HDPE. Unfortunately the Y-axis stepper motor seems to loose steps (lots of em actually) so the ABS version looks worse although it's Z resolution is far better because the ABS does not seem to grow larger after it leaves the nozzle. With a 0.4mm nozzle hole we get a 0.43mm filament.
