Models for Printing with Larger Nozzles? 0.6, 0.8, 1.2

Is there a file that has been optimized for printing with larger nozzles?  I have 0.6, 0.8 & even 1.2mm nozzles.  Prints could be done more than twice as fast and would be very strong.  I've got time, a Taz 6 and plenty of PETG material to help out the efforts.

I've got some notes on printing with various nozzle sizes that might be useful to you. Depending on your hotend, smaller nozzles may limit speeds you can hit. With larger nozzles, much larger volumes of filament can be processed even with a modest hotend like the E3D V6. Note sure what your Tax has for a hotend, but look at my COVID printing and maximum volumetric rate calibration notes for some possibilities.
