When printing ABS you need to use high bed temperature, but it needs very long time to reach 90-100 °C. One simple mod is to insulate termically the bottom part, to avoid heat to disperse.
Time to heat will not be cutted in half but will be reduced, also the hotbed temperature will be more steady during printing.
After all this is a cheap and easy mod so.. why not? :D
You will need:
- a thermal insulation sheet, the one used for home radiators. You can find it at the hardware store for
