I would go for ABS or nylon for outdoor use.


ABS can be quite tricky to print with if its a big part and no heated
chamber...


I don't think either material is suitable for the simpler hobby printers.




I used to print everything in ABS but I blew the main board on the
printer I made a cabinet for and haven't got around to fixing even
though I bought a main board, drives and LCD for £6 in an amazon sale.

Decided the bed was too small and bought and ender 3.
Not used the ABS on it yet.
