Have you also tried printing with ABS, or is it mostly the stories that hold you off?
Indeed, it is not as easy to print with as for example PLA, but materials like Nylon or POM or even XT or XTCF (colorFabb) can have some interesting material properties.
Not sure how it works with POM, but have you tried making an ABS slurry for example?
These materials have the tendency to warp, but usually it can be prevented without getting too 'crazy'.
There are 3D printers that have a perforated board, could be something to look into?
