PLA in living room was fine. Moved to ABS for outdoor work, fumes problem. Workshop is 3m x 4m, single window.

Options researching:
  • Enclosure + carbon filter inline fan
  • Direct vent to window via 4-inch duct
  • Both (enclosure first, then vented)
Real-world: anyone here printed ABS/ASA in a small room without going outside between layers? What setup ate the fumes effectively without sounding like a jet engine?
