Once you get past .8 things can get messy quickly if your profiles aren't spot on.

There's  a .3mm set that I plan to try first, instead of the .4mm it has now.
I realize the print speed will probably need to be Slower for the smaller size,
but will it improve print quality ?

So , I was wondering if anyone here has tried sizes larger or smaller than .4mm ,
with 1.7mm filament nozzles ?
And if the results were Good or Bad, for average sized objects?
Thanks,
