Print is progressing slowly, but the surface finish seems to be pretty good, so that is a fair tradeoff I guess.
We will see what happens as the curve progresses.

This thing is big (almost 8 inch diameter).
Not sure if the print will finish on one roll of filament.
The Prusa is suppose to recover if it runs out of PLA.
Surface finish so far is not bad.
The very long print time is making me rethink the corebox idea.
Two coreboxes = approaching 3 days of printing.
I guess it is not tying me up by printing, so maybe we let it print whatever.
I need larger filament rolls on this machine.
Wall thickness looks about right.
