I had been playing width and extrusion multipliers at the time, trying to work out a first layer issue. I had gone to far.
These are my current PLA settings.

PPS: if you need so hot bed because of ABS warping - i'd say that ambient 68F is too cold for ABS. You may try to build a wall around your printer to reduce airflow.
Yeah I figured that. Enclosing the printer isn't really practical at the moment. If I consider that later, I'm going to build a complete raised wooden / plexi enclosure, similar to the base on a ROSTOCK MAX V2, to put the Raspberry Pi and Power supply inside of, and build 2 side and a door out of the plexi. May have to wait until next winter though.

You could create a quick enclosure using some sheets of wood, or even cardboard might work. If it helps keep the heat in, any bit will help.
On DC42's calculator, is "tower angular position" the Alpha values? So 210, 330, and 90? And to add the adjustments, I subtract the suggested values from that? So a correction of -1.3 for X would be 210 - 1.3 = 208.7 as the new Alpha A value? Just want to double check as I can't seem to get it quite dialed in.

Yes, so it will looks like this:

I saw couple of success stories with IR heat lamps that heat the whole print. It's not enough to heat ABS only from the bottom - you will get the material contraction in higher layers that will warp bottom layers.

I did order a 290 mm rod set two weeks ago and will test them. For me the calculation was as following:
1) I have ok print quality in a 70 mm radius, good quality in 60 mm radius. But I would like to have ~ 100 mm radius.
2) My max printing height (at *full* radius) is appr. 240 mm. I dont need that, I am ok with 200 mm'ish.
So: I have ~40 mm spare in z and want the radius to be ~40 mm wider. As the rods are *nearly* parallel to the tower when at the tower and *nearly* perpendicular to the tower when positioned opposite to the tower -> +50 mm for good measure. 240 + 50 = 290.
Will keep you updated how that works out.
