There is an article out there somewhere in the ether where someone printed with 100% infill, then put the print in a glass container and packed it with salt that they had pulverized with a coffee grinder into a powder and re-melted / fused it. Their intent was for making clear parts since they were using transparent filament, but it should be great for increasing the adhesion of the layers as well. Ideally, it would become more of a monolithic plastic part than a bunch of layers.
