Standard nylons (like PA6 or PA12) are semi-crystalline. As they cool, they shrink significantly, leading to catastrophic warping on a print bed. Furthermore, they are notoriously hygroscopic, absorbing moisture from the air so quickly that a fresh spool can become "wet" and brittle in a matter of hours. As they cool, they shrink significantly, leading to
